That would be a "Mockingbird", I believe! Took these a few minutes ago and just thought I'd add them to my last post of Mockingbird pictures. It's entertaining watching them guard their Pyracantha Angustifolia Pomes. They are certainly fierce about protecting their winter food supply! Plenty of attitude!

Cee Cee! Like your avatar! Never told you that! They are a hoot to watch! They go absolutely bonkers if another bird flys by!

Thanks, glad you took a peek!

Really like the bird with the pyracantha. They look so good together.

They do! Wish they would get into the sun more! It was rather chilly you'd think they'd like a little warm sunshine?

Nice images Will, even more so since we don't see them around here.

I'm sure you'd enjoy them. Of all the birds we have around those mockingbirds have the most personality. I do believe they could be tamed.....don't know if anyone has! They are smart.

We had a pair of Ravens around today! No photos yet! They are huge compared to crows! Any Ravens up there in the Yukon?
