Camouflage

[Trent Watts]

While out birding the other day I heard a bird some distance off. After searching for some time I saw this Gray Catbird in a bush.
It was well camouflaged in the thicket and it made be think of other pics I have taken that show the colour schemes that obscure a bird in their environment.
I'm sure others have even better examples if you care to share.

Excellent examples of how to blend in and not become lunch. I almost had to look twice to see the bird in the first image and the brown creeper is equally notable for not being notable

Wow! What a cool theme Trent. all of those birds really blend in so well. Great capture on these.

Three very different types of camouflage. Nicely done.
