Northern Mockingbird - Mimus polyglottos Not even the rain can keep the birds away from the mulberry tree. They seem to love the berries. Foxes and squirrels too. I can look out my window when the berries are ripe and see 5-10 species eating off the tree at a time.<br />

    1. Thanks Niel! It actually froze in this position when it saw me, lol. I can't help but compare its facial expression to the one my husband makes when I catch him eating cookies late at night. Posted 2 years ago

The northern mockingbird is the only mockingbird commonly found in North America. This bird is mainly a permanent resident, but northern birds may move south during harsh weather.
