My thoughts which pertain to a Catcher who is talented, skilled at his position. Higher levels of play or higher levels of catching ability. Random, not in order of importance.
1) F2 movements in setting up are slow and easily followed by PU to position himself
2) There is recognition of F2-PU relationship; there is fun and hard work, honest commo.
3) Balls in dirt are handed back automatically for potential replacement.
4) F2 asks for ball immediately on an out of play foul.
5) Always gets a "T" before going to the mound
6) Never discusses his at bats
7) Will be HIGHLY proactive if F1 is posturing or verbally complaining.
8) Takes in stride strikes called ball
Others? About 100 or so.
