This morning I was outside with our cat Oscar when I heard a familiar bird that landed on our fence along with this young female. Have not seen the adult male mockingbird in a few days. He taught his young male bird well as he sounds just like him and seems to act the same way too. Have no idea if this is his sister or partner, but happy to see these young mockingbirds. He did not dive bomb or go after Oscar. Both flew up into the tree after this.
@annbo Thank you so much for your comments, Ann. This male was loud but worth the wait as it was a busy morning in the sky, on the roofs and in the trees with so many birds.
@grammyn Thank you, Katy. I am glad for Oscar and 365 as this would have never happened to start with. Never thought I would be shooting photos of birds like this. It is a lot of fun.
@wannabe You always make me laugh, Catherine. He does have a big mouth for a small bird, both visually and volume. Thank you very much for your comments and fav.
Thank you so much, Bobby. Was fun to see them finally and acting like their parents. Too funny. What my life has come to, watching and photographing birds but at least it is fun.
This is great Darlene! I was wondering what all that bird squacking was comming from and went outside today to see that those mockingbirds are all over my lawn! They sure are noisy arent they! Then i was told that the mocking bird was Texas State Bird! lol!
@ellimae Thank you, Ellen. How fun to have mockingbirds all over your lawn. They are really noisy. Hope you got some photos. True, the mockingbird is the Texas state bird. lol
@copperheadglass Thank you so much for your comments, Rach. He is just like his Father and just as noisy. They are quite amusing now that they are out of their nest and getting around.
@marlboromaam Thank you so much for your comments, Maggie. Heard this male coming from the side of our house and thought he was the adult male as he was just as loud and sounds the same. He plopped on our fence with this young female and kept screaming and flew into the tree with her, I think back to their nest as next one adult came out. My early morning entertainment. lol
@rach_who Thank you so much, Rach. They were so funny to watch. This young male sounds just like his father and this female like her mother sits and does not say much. Very entertaining.
@giffy I sure wish I could provide audio. He is as loud as his father. I love it and miss the Dad coming around on a regular basis. Not complaining as it was something to see and hear. Thank you for your comments.
