Gray Catbird sits nearby

Talking to me as I write words for emotions and feelings.

Words, she sings, are a jumbled song.

Sing instead for your heart healings.

Jumbled Song

Gray Catbird

Gray Catbird Description: Medium-sized songbird, smaller than a robin, with a smooth gray body, black cap, and rusty-red under-tail. They sometimes mimic other species in complex, jumbled song. Prefers dense shrubs and small trees in forest edges, streamside thickets, and old fields. Occasionally feeds on suet.
