    State bird mocking us


    Florida's State Bird, the Mockingbird, has been the source of much ruckus! It's mating season, so Senor Mockingbird makes mating calls all night long and he has individual and large repertoires (not as naughty as it sounds). If you hear him repeating things around three times, this is a key to a Mockingbird looking for a mate. Singing all night near a light during breeding season is typical mockingbird behavior.

    Once Mr. M finds a mate, the nesting portion is a tad quieter, but not nicer; Mockingbirds aggressively protect their nests, whether they need to or not!
    And if that Mockingbird don't sing, it must not be a male in the spring!!!!
