Sweet baby mockingbird set to take his place mocking at our cats when he gets older and stronger!

Baby mockingbird has left the nest!
Our 14 yo son, whom I have referred to here before as Audubon (suits him, yes?) hustled in today to tell me there was something I might want to take a picture of out in the yard...

We had a fledgling mockingbird the other week and didn't know what it was. I searched through several bird ID books, but kept coming up empty handed. Your little guy looks just like the baby we saw! We've had mockingbirds in the backyard all summer, so I think we've got our ID! Thanks :)
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! I like mockingbirds (and most other birds). Between our cat and our dog, we seldom see them in OUR yard, though. ;)
