This pair of Gray Catbirds has a nest in the trumpet vine and they protect it with scolding and mewing notes. Catbirds have black caps and the male has bright rusty feathers under the tail. They often sing from a high perch that gives rise to the idiom, "sitting in the catbird seat," which refers to someone in an advantageous position.
