RE: Mockingbirds – a new poem
Thank you for your kind words @macoolette, and you're right - mockingbirds are great imitators as well as beautiful singers. They even imitate sounds made by human-made things like cameras, chain-saws, etc. When I hear one singing, I always stop and listen. It's uplifting!
I grew up in the province where my elder brothers used to catch me birds from the farm when we were young. Most of them are quail though there were few that I do not know what kind of bird. There were ones that looked that one on your photo though I never really knew. I wondered about it when we left my birthplace and I got to know "To Kill A Mockingbird" book by John Grisham during college. I wish I can encounter a mockingbird now... 😂
