A tiny, long-tailed bird of deciduous forests and scrublands, the Blue-gray Gnatcatcher makes itself known by its soft but emphatic "spee" calls and its constant motion. By flicking its white-edged tail from side to side, the gnatcatcher may scare up hiding insects.
We photographed this guy at Lanark Nature Center one Saturday. Its difficult to photograph such a energetic bird, but this is the best photo I got.
