I almost didn’t spot this mockingbird because of its gray color blending into the tree it was sitting on, but its constant singing was hard to miss. Known for singing almost endlessly, the mockingbird likes to make its presence known. When reading about the northern mockingbird I found out that they continue to add new sounds to their repertoires throughout their life, kind of like their own person playlist. A male mockingbird may know around 200 songs towards the end of his life. I’ve seen and heard mockingbird before and that isn’t surprising since they are very common in towns and cities. I spotted this particular mockingbird in a park less than a mile from my home.
