But I think they are just passing through en masse. Two days ago, there were something like twenty catbirds in an area not much bigger than a football field near my house in Columbia. I wouldn't expect to see more than a pair in that sized area during breeding. Yesterday, their numbers were down, but they were replaced by indigo buntings, again upwards of twenty in that small area. And today the indigo buntings will be replaced by rain...
