Mocking bird ?


Shot this guy this afternoon while sitting in the sun out of the wind reading with the camera in reach.

Most of the Northern Mockingbirds will be heading north pretty soon,
but they'll be back next year.

Mockingbirds will sing replays of car alarms. It's true i've heard them at 4AM.

You you Russ and Micky


http://www.birdlist.org/index.htm

I was looking around on the web for something containing mass data on birds for you. I found this site and got very inerested in it. Read for bout an hour!

If you navigate to "Public Categories" within the site....

Anyone can mail in a picture of their "unknown" bird and get a full response on it! Very cool.




Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

I checked out the site and you can sure spend a lot of time there. I saved it for future reference. But with BigOly around and other knowledgeable Nomads I don't think they've missed an ID yet.
Thanks
