POTD 5/6/24

May 06, 2024  •  1 Comment

MADE ME WONDER? - A Gray Catbird rummaging around under the bird feeders yesterday made me wonder where the phrase "in the catbird's seat" came from? Wikipedia says: "The catbird seat' is an idiomatic phrase used to describe an enviable position, often in terms of having the upper hand or greater advantage in a situation. It derives from the secluded perch on which the gray catbird makes mocking calls.

Another GAB photo. I wonder how many viewers of this site appreciate the patience it takes to get these photos.
