This gray bird, or one of its relatives, was seen around the cabin on occasion over several years. The previous time up I startled it on the main road a few hundred feet away, early in the morning. It made a memorably loud wingbeat sound as it panicked and ascended to safety on a tree branch. Here the trailcam caught it (but for some reason only triggering once) strolling around outside.
