This mockingbird surely must be my regular - same bush - same behavior. Not worried about me at all (even when I talk to him from 6 feet away) and ask him to come forward some. He obliged!! How could I not take his picture.
You've made a friend! What a special experience. Love the pretty light on him and your trademark sharp focus capturing all of his beauty. Looks like he has a feast of berries waiting for him. Must be a happy Mockingbird.
