Once when coming to work at Ft Lee some years ago, I found a mockingbird
standing on a bush next to me. I whistled at it, something like da de du
over and over again. It answered me every time and pretty soon it started
going da de du as well. I continued this some time until a woman came up to
me and asked "Are you talking to it?" I was so close to the bird that I
could see its throat vibrate when it chirped.

It's not an unusual bird or even a great picture, but this morning this
mockingbird sat on this sign just a couple of feet from the sidewalk and
sang for me and anyone else who walked by.
