Saturday Critters #641

 - A Photo Shoot with a Northern Mockingbird -
This Mockingbird was not shy...
quite the contrary, it really seemed it wanted to share all of it's pretty sides with me.
Slight movements, gentle tilts of the head, this bird was the perfect model.






The Mockingbird is a familiar, medium sized, long tailed bird.
It is a grayish brown songbird, sexes are similar.
The Mockingbird has an extraordinary vocal mimicry capable of imitating hundreds of sounds,
including other birds.

This pretty songbird was photographed at
Lake of the Lilies.

Sharing today images with Eileen at 
for Saturdays Critters
