Northern Mockingbird

I heard Mockingbird singing.


He is back.
He is claiming his territory.
Welcome home.
I missed you.

  6. Hi Karen,
    Thank you. Mockingbird sings so sweetly. One of my favorite backyard birds.

  7. Dear Sprite,
    I would say it is the angle of the photo that shows the center breast so well. Also I think Mockingbird has just finished his molt and has yet to get all of his warm feathers for winter.
    You know how much I love this bird!

  8. Dear Jayne,
    Every summer the Mockingbirds leave for a couple of months. I always miss them.
    When they return I know it is truely Autumn.

  9. Sherry,

    Our mockingbirds stay all year. It's been nice to see their progression through mating season and all the riots they cause :o)

  10. Dear Mary,
    Ours leave around July and return in late September. I never know where they go!
    They are lovely singers.
