gnatcatcher /ˈnatkatʃə /nounA tiny grey-backed New World songbird, with a long tail that is often cocked.- Genus Polioptila, family Polioptilidae (or Sylviidae): several species.
Titmice, chickadees, gnatcatchers, grackles, and swifts came and went....- A rainbow of darts shoots through the limbs - a capeful of purple finch, three blue-gray gnatcatchers, a pair of cedar waxwings, and countless ruby-crowned kinglets.
- Hence, the quail and the gnatcatcher might both be relatively recent arrivals in the north.
