Skillful imitator, the Gray Catbird prefers undergrowth. From time to time, he will offer his performance well short.

This baby gray squirrel was out exploring today and stopped by the deck to look in several pots.

I had planned on Snowy Owls today but its raining and windy. Time to go thru and delete a lot of Great Gray shots from last winter/spring! Have to keep this one.

Nice treat from a trip out to AZ was this briefly cooperative perched Gray Hawk.

I am saying goodbye to the Great Gray Owls for a while.

I will be going back to the boreal forest north of here once winter sets in and we get the frosty trees and blue skies for a setting.

This is one of several Gray-capped Flycatchers that we saw on our visit to Costa Rica earlier this month. I’m impressed by just how many different types of flycatchers there are and by how many very similar looking ones share the same habitat.

We will be doing this trip again next spring, if you think you might be interested more information is available here: www.texastargetbirds.com/group-photo-trips/2018-costa-ric...

This guy is about 4-inches long. I haven't been a fan of grasshoppers since the 1990s. I don't remember the exact year but Gray Bird Grasshopper showed up in Eastern Kansas and caused plant and crop destruction of biblical proportions.

However, grasshopper anatomy is spectacular with most species requiring 9 molts to reach adulthood. If you like details, zoom in

I have a very similar shot in color, but it's been raining forever, and today looks to be another gray day, so I went with this one. Someday, I'll post the sunny shot.

Thanks to all for viewing, faving and/or commenting! Much appreciated! L

Gray Peacock-Pheasant isn't all that colorful but when looking at the plumage through binoculars an incredible pattern shows!

The National bird of Canada!

These Gray Squirrels are skittish and difficult to photograph. They see me coming from a distance and I am lucky if I get a good look at them. I was pretty fortunate to find this guy out in the open.

Thanks for Viewing.

Snakes are the big draw on Snake Road, but frogs were present in large numbers. This little guy stood still for a nice pose. LaRue-Pine Hills, Illinois

After a rainy night Good Friday showed up with low temperatures and a cloudy sky. Too cold for two weels, to wet for the golf course. So I started the day with an extended hiking tour along River Weser in the Porta Westfalica Area, Ostwestfalen, Germany
