I noticed a couple other posts about having N. Mockingbirds in yards... for the past couple days I've had one coming to the bird bath..It hasn't shown any interest in the feeders, but its liking the heated water! Also, while its not unusual to have Red Tail and Coopers Hawks in and around my yard, for the past few days there's been a Red Tail actively hunting squirrels out back.. On Friday afternoon I saw it nail a squirrel in a Silver Maple just behind the house.. Unfortunately, I couldn't get a window open in time to get a good shot of it, but it keeps hanging around (most recently, yesterday)..
