Blue-gray Gnatcatcher It is a tiny bird with a long tail and a small thin bill. To scare up hiding insects it flicks its tail from side to side. Since it is in constant motion, it is hard to observe and take its picture. They measure 3.9 to 4.3 inches long and have a wingspan of 6.3 inches. In the summer they migrate to the northern states.

Blue-gray Gnatcatcher This is a very tiny bird, constantly on the move, constantly flicking its tall back and forth to scare up insects. The immature Gnatcatchers looks like the female, but they have browner wings, as seen here.
