Funny you should all mention unusual Mockingbird behavior. I
recently received the following:
I have been feeeding birds in Beltsville for many years. I
feed the Mockingbirds raisins. I usually don't get much activity
in the winter. For the last few days a male and female have
been beging at my back door. This is the routine in spring.
Could they be feeding babys now?
Any comments???
