Of course, I laughed a lot but I felt the urge to sit that Mocker down and have a talk about sharing.<BR/><BR/>LOL!Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040099513110890878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439217614964375870.post-7539014239242455582009-02-02T11:18:00.000-05:002009-02-02T11:18:00.000-05:00The first winter I was in my house I had a mocking...The first winter I was in my house I had a mockingbird take up residence on my deck in November and not allow ANY other birds into the yard all winter. I was pretty aggravated as I wanted to see more than just ONE bird; we had quite the feud going on where I would go out and chase him off, he would come back, etc...given that I had a job and a life and he had nothing better to do, he won and I finally gave up. I called him Mr Wilson after Dennis the Menace's neighbor because he was so damn possessive of "his" yard. He must have gone on ebird and found a girlfriend, because he finally disappeared and made only the occasional appearance and eventually his reign of terror was over (of course, for some reason when he was gone I actually WORRIED that something had happened to him). Now I see them occasionally but the current one (s?) seem content to share.Sheltiedochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17413120330861291460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3439217614964375870.post-61151018840971975832009-02-02T10:52:00.000-05:002009-02-02T10:52:00.000-05:00You have a "work" mockingbird AND a "home" mocking...You have a "work" mockingbird AND a "home" mockingbird?
