Mockingbird

Not all that colorful--in fact, kind of drab. But I got a good shot of it, at least. DRebel, 200mm f/2.8L, 1.4X TC, 1/1250 @f/6.3.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm not sure what the plant was---it's a 10 foot tall shrub, actually. Looks nice in the pic, though. Jim, I like your shot better; the blue sky kind of messed up the contrast of the bird. I still like it, though! Thanks!

When we lived in Sun City West we had a pet (of sorts) mockingbird.

All you need to get them to come with a whistle is grapes!

They LOVE grapes. Cut them in half and it makes it easier for the birds.
