MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Joe, my bet would be fledgling catbird. They are very nondescript. Catbirds do flick their tails. As far as I know, immature mockers look about the same as mature birds.

Basically, think of a mockingbird without the white = patches (anywhere -- no tail, wing, etc.) or a catbird without the black = cap (and, about that size although coloser to the mocker in size).
