Only Family ..

Portrait ?

Probably ..
Neither parent was happy ..
I was too close to the 'kids' ..
Thought I'd just sort of walk past the nest ..
If you've ever seen Mockingbirds upset ..
That was it !

They took turns flying up ..
White feathers displayed ..
And very vocal ..

Have seen Mockingbirds attack felines ..
When they were just walking in the yard in Florida ..
Minding their own business ..

I didn't plan on getting attacked ..
So, quick shot and I was out of there!

All was fine with the Mockingbird Parents then.

Oh, but went too close to the House Finch nest
that is still under construction ..
Poppa Finch was in fine voice !
