This is the first time I've photographed this common but elusive cousin of the catbird and mockingbird. One usually hears its many different calls rather than spotting it in the dense thickets of the Northern boreal forest. The long shot was heavily cropped, but it's a large bird, bigger than a robin, so it shows up with reasonable detail.
