Media notes

Adult male Gray Catbird at 7-15 meters at 0546. This is a male that I do not think I have recorded here before. He was fanning his tail widely and pulled under its body. Once it moved to the top of the tree he held his tail straight down and closed. Recorder HPF on at 80Hz, -12dB/octave.
