Minimal mockingbird by homeschoolmom

Minimal mockingbird

The dog and I went out in the back yard to take some photos this morning. He always takes great pride in chasing all the birds out of the yard. He even barks at them as they fly over our yard, especially crows. He really doesn't like crows. But, he doesn't really like this mockingbird either, because he always bolds out the door and straight for the corner of the yard where this bird seems to live. So, the mockingbird flies up to the vent on the roof to get away from him.
A super capture

Lovely image... I like your use of negative space.

I'm surprised the mockingbird doesn't dive bomb him.

@randystreat If it did, the mockingbird would probably become a Seamus snack. When I was in high school, we had a mockingbird that used to dive bomb our cat and peck him on the head. It would roll our cat end over end through the yard. I don't think it would have the same effect on Seamus. He's 9 times the size our cat was! LOL!

@homeschoolmom I've seen them do that to a cat, too. Now that I think of it, never with a dog.
