Hello Tweeters,
Here are few photos of this fast flying Gnutcatcher.I must give all the
credit to Patrick for taking the best photos,where i managed to take only
two decent shots.This bird was moving fast as other birders mention this
too.And thanks to Dennis Paulson to scan this photos for us.The nest was
completed as we was watching this Gnutcatcher last Saturday.And he was
flying around ,but never realy went that close on to the nest.This bird was
feeding and preening alot that day,and we did not stayed verry long.I was
amazed that no one was there Saturday morning beside Denny Granstand, up
11.00am when we left that including hiking higher in to the canyon.
