Catbirds are not very colorful, but the Oriels are.

There is a young lady on YT that, IIRC, lives in the Maritimes who often
posts videos about Bluejays.  Apparently, where she is, they molt.  I have
never seen a featherless jay down here but they are pretty weird looking. ;)

Lots of Crows here also.  Woodpeckers, too, in all sizes.  The Swallows
tend to stay near where there is farmland (so we have them but I don't see
them at the house).  Chickadees and "Sparrows" are common.

There are Hawks and Falcons nearby as I live near the Pallisades.  Turkey
Vultures are EVERYWHERE here.  Just about as common, if not more so, than
the state bird -- the Cardinal.  Eagles are not plentiful in my immediate
area, but are more common in Eastern Kentucky, especially around our
several man-made lakes.
