This picture was taken today in Ohio (Mid West).

We are in a FaceBook debate trying to determine what type of bird it is so naturally I thought of consulting the experts.

Who Am I?

If that is a mockingbird..than I do have some by my house..BUT they don't make any unusual sounds. Which I'm thankful of..my friend said while on base in Louisiana once the mockingbirds were annoying. Making such crazy noises. Gun shots, chain saws, and a few others.

Yep, They usually do this when they have a nest or young nearby. It is really quite funny to watch. I watched one dive-bomb a buzzard eating a rabbit last week.

So, pretty. But mean stinkers!

I have a whole bunch that nest in the tree outside my house. The people across the street have a rooster..who crows EVERY morning beginning at 4:30am. The really funny part is...the mockingbirds copy him LOL. Would be a lot cuter if it wasn't so darn early though!

No Doug, I think they are taking over the US because I swear there are usually at least 15 in my backyard at any given moment.

Juncos have a shorter beak. this is a mocking bird. we have a pair around our house.
Catman Posted - May 05 2012 : 11:51:19 PM
And I thought mockingbird was just weird song

Gizmo-n-Roos Mommy Posted - May 05 2012 : 10:28:01 PM
Thanks, all of the guides I have show the mockingbird to be much lighter in color. This coloring was closer to the dark eyed junco, except they don't have the dark beak and feet.

I agree. We have them in abundance in Florida. They love to sing, especially early in the morning on my days off

That there is a mockingbird. A pretty one at that.
