Birds Of Indiana You
May Not Know
{ Furnished by the State Department
of Conservation


The catbird gets its common name
from it's well-known note, ''uu-eu, uu-
ow", which it drawls out like half
grown kitten.
The catbird, 1.-The madcap cousin of
the thrush" is about nine inches long,
and has a wing extent Of about II
inches. In it's general form it is slen-
der and graceful. It's plumage is soft
and blended. It's general color above
is slate gray, the head, tail and inner
webs of the primaries being brownish-
black. The wings are short, extending
only to the base of the tail. Tail long,
slender and well rounded at the end.
In appearance the sexes are alike.
The catbird ranges from Panama to
Cuba and through the eastern part OF
the United States and west to the
Rockies. 1t comes north about the
middle of April and ventures south
about the last of October.
The usefulness and harmfulness or
a bird depends upon the food it eats.
The catbird is accused of doing much
damage to grapes. OF its food, Prof.
Judd. who examined % of their stom-
achs, says it consisted of "a per cent
animal or insect matter and Sc per
cent of vegetable matter. Ants, beet
les, caterpillars and grasshoppers con-
stituted three-fourths of the animal
matter the remainder being made up
of bugs, miscellaneous insects and
spiders. One-third of the vegetable
matter consisted of cultivated fruits
and the remainder of wild fruits. This
is not bad record.
