2014 Photograph, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher (Polioptila caerulea, Gnatcatcher Family Polioptilidae) Nest, Dad Checking out the Nest, Occoquan Bay NWR, Woodbridge, Virginia, © 2020.
The female Gnatcatcher usually just delivered food and left, but the male often lingered a bit to check out the nest surroundings--or to take out the garbage from the chicks. |
