close look at a catbird

 There's been a catbird coming to the feeder.


This is unusual; they tend to eat berries and insects. I've never seen one eat seeds!


He looks round and almost wren-like here, but they aren't round birds. But I think their black eyes are so cute. 

I knew they were back because I'd heard the warbling outside my window, where they hang out in the forsythia hedge.


I just looked it up - if there aren't enough bugs around they'll eat some seed. I wonder if it was the same bird both times I've seen him.
