I saw this one in A wooded area in Buttonwood Park, it was making some interesting sounds, well there was quiet a few of them
Some interesting info I read about cat Birds

Gray Catbirds get their common name from their distinctive mewing call, which can sound like a cat’s meow to some ears, Not that I can say I head cat sounds when I saw them

Gray Catbirds can produce two sounds at the same time thanks to their ability to use each side of their syrinx, or vocal organ, independently. they can use one side or the other or both.

When they sing they can keep going for around 10 Minutes and mimic other birds and even mechanical sounds

The male Gray Catbird uses his loud song to proclaim his territory. He uses a softer version of the song when near the nest or when a bird intrudes on his territory. The female may sing the quiet song back to the male.

Next up we have a Great Egret

Such a beautiful bird to watch flying, Great Egrets fly slowly but powerfully: with just two wingbeats per second their cruising speed is around 25 miles an hour
I think this is also an Egret
