[TN-Bird] Gray catbird - Shelby Bottoms - 2/5/09 & 2/13/09

My wife and I saw the gray catbird (and heard another) in some privet on one of 
the loop trails near the river

fairly close to the visitor center, along w/ brown thrashers and WTS. On 
2/5/09, while in the same vicinity, 

give or take 50 yds or so, I saw three GCB and was able to photograph one, 
though slightly obscured in the dense

vegetation. It had been foraging on the ground, judging by the dirt on it's 
beak. 

 

The GBBC has been notified with a picture(even though the pic was from the week 
earlier).

I'd be happy to share this photo with anyone interested, as I'm not sure of 
winter records of this bird in Tn.
