Catbirds and lemon drops

I was passing by the trailer that serves as the office and lounge for the Hooves and Horns department; it was a pleasant day and the door was open. As I approached, a catbird flew in. I followed it in, and watched it as it perched on a chair in front of a computer, about 2 feet away from me. "Do you want this catbird in here?" I called to the keepers over in the office.

Like a fool I didn't photograph it while it was inside. When I spoke, it quickly flew out but not far, just outside the doorway onto these lawn chairs. I'm not sure what its plan was--probably it was just checking out the territory, seeing if there were food sources or nesting places.

The wooden rail fences around many of the Hooves and Horns exhibits sprout Bisporella citrina when it rains. The largest of these lemon drop mushrooms is about 1 mm across.
