Sing a song of hope

This Mockingbird has been singing for the last few days, nearly non-stop! It is getting harder to capture him, as the tree is full of leaves.
I love the way his head is facing up in song. such a lovely shot.

Is that the baby mockingbird or the mama?

A sweet shot....must be a joyous sound!

@juliac I think this is the mama. The baby still sounds like one and this one sang beautifully.

Thank you all so much for taking the time to comment. I accidentally uploaded a very small version of the photo. :-( For those of you who have not heard the mockingbird, here is a link:

I have certainly heard the aggressive tone on more than one occasion while tracking the baby!

@danette I did wonder why it was so small. :-)

@gailmmeek I just posted a better photo to my alternate album.

Yea I looked at some of my backyard feathered friends yesterday getting tuff with all the leaves.

They are difficult to capture here as they typically head for the tallest trees in the neighborhood hardly visible from view. I love their music.
