    I took this photo at Corkscrew Swamp. I'm not sure what bird it is.
    Thanks,
    John

    Hi John. This looks like a Gray Catbird to me. The black cap is a good field mark with the gray body and the black tail.

    Definitely Gray Catbird. Dan already nailed the best marks, but the black button eye and lack of wingbars also help ID the bird.

    And from another direction, the brick-red under-tail coverts would show up nicely too!
