A Truly Astonishing And Handsome Songbird.
Known for its intelligence, the Northern Mockingbird is a truly astonishing and handsome songbird.
The Northern Mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos) is the only species of mockingbird commonly found in the United States.
Mockingbirds are located all throughout the United States and Mexico and parts of Canada. They reside in fields, forest edges, and backyards. They sit high in trees, on fence posts, and on utility lines and sing loudly. They also hop along on the ground looking for food.
Mockingbirds are omnivorous. In the summer, their diet consists mainly of insects. During the fall and the winter, they eat more fruit and berries than insects.
The mockingbird is the state bird of Texas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Florida, and Arkansas.
I found this one in my yard headed for its nest with a tasty morsel for its young! Polk County, Florida.
