I just worry they're attracting predators to the nest by singing. That song is 100% mocking bird .Signsofautumnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13341792630900457880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-79291675411562895802016-08-12T17:20:37.622-05:002016-08-12T17:20:37.622-05:00HI, it's a mocking bird .

They actually just left the nest yesterday an came out . That's her song every morning when I call her. I say "pretty girl" I whistle and she comes to sing the song and then I give her a few blueberries and she goes on her way. I get to hear her sing along with several other songs she sings all day . I feel so blessed. She's beautiful. Enjoy your mocking bird. You'll notice a pattern if you observe everyday. They'll even come when you find bugs you throw to them. Just teach with a whistle and they'll be there.Signsofautumnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13341792630900457880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-43840269512122109522016-08-09T23:38:38.670-05:002016-08-09T23:38:38.670-05:00I didn't know that about mockingbirds, thanks ...I didn't know that about mockingbirds, thanks for that.

Hi Co...I just received this email a little bit ago.<br />Hi Colleen,<br />This starts off with a call note of Northern Cardinal and then a Carolina Wren comes in with a full song several times. It has been represented phonetically as “tea kettle, tea kettle, tea kettle, tea.”<br />Thanks for thinking of us.<br />Richard Gibbons<br />Conservation Director <br />Houston Audubon<br />Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13106960827480062745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-34607946114550755742016-08-07T06:57:59.971-05:002016-08-07T06:57:59.971-05:00I could hear it and I know I've heard that cal...I could hear it and I know I've heard that call in the past. Littlemancat is probably right that it is the wren. Mockingbirds don't repeat the same song over and over. They have a large repertoire of sounds that may include other bird calls.Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00992626996077874832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-64087200762417165302016-08-06T18:10:33.552-05:002016-08-06T18:10:33.552-05:00It sounds like the blooming mockingbird that tweet...It sounds like the blooming mockingbird that tweets outside my window from 2 in the morning unti daybreak every single night.lAnne in the kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533249631969001657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-73192126027629913362016-08-06T15:14:08.025-05:002016-08-06T15:14:08.025-05:00Sounds like a Carolina wren to me.

I can recognize a few bird tweets, especially the fussy cardinals when there is no birdseed in the feeder. Recently, I'm seeing a few mockingbirds and hearing a lot of bird sounds (singing) I have never heard before.
