I've posted several photos of Northern Mockingbirds on my blog in the past year. They are wonderfully photogenic and I never cease to enjoy their antics and their beautiful songs. Here's one landing on a privet hedge last week.

beautiful photos! I would do a bit of photo art with the first one..(boost the brightness and contrast basically) the high key background is perfect for a 'study'.. love these birds, and hope to get my fill when we head south :)
I retired from the University of Arizona, where I coordinated distance learning. New enthusiasms include learning about digital photography and photoprocessing, archaeology, theatre, and observing the natural world around me.

Love the first pic!
He looks kind of bedraggled, like maybe he just flew through a sprinkler!
cindy - Thanks for the advice. I've worked on the original, which has higher resolution. All good wishes on your journey south.
laurahinnj - This one flew out of the hanging dead fronds of the palm tree, so he was indeed a bit unkempt.
sonia - Good to hear from you! Thank you!
