Gray Catbird (Dumetella carolinensis) - 20230928-02

            Medium-sized songbird, smaller than a robin, with a smooth gray body, black cap, and rusty-red undertail. Sometimes mimics other species in complex, jumbled song. Prefers dense shrubs and small trees in forest edges, streamside thickets, and old fields. Occasionally feeds on suet.  (eBird)

This catbird decided to try out the wild grapes growing around his lair, despite the photographers who were happy to see this skulky bird out in the open for a change.
