Yes, for sure

Yup...they are so cool! I was just looking out my window one day at my holly bush and a mockingbird landed on it and just started nibbling off the red berries. Love seeing them so close like that! Nice picture.

Congrats on your Mocker, and it's a nice pic!! Oh...those crazy Mockers. I just love mine. They can really dominate a yard, but they are so much fun to watch. I had 2 pairs that built their nests fairly close to one another in my yard this spring. It has been a riot to watch them try to coexist peacefully. They aren't always so successful, and squabbles break out often. Now, I am watching the juveniles "get their attitudes on." I think that one of my males has decided to try to break a Guiness World Record for the longest constant vocalizations. That boy sings all day long and all night long, flying from perch to perch to stake his claim to territory. So funny! Here is a recent shot of one of the parents with a fledgling in my yard, and another shot of 2 of the fledglings together.~~Angie

I thank you all for your confirmations. He sure was peppy. That was just a lucky shot from about 50 feet away. I didn't get a second chance. He was gone.
