For more than a week now I've been hearing the songs of Dickcissels, 
Yellow-billed Cuckoos, and Summer Tanagers when I'm out in the yard. But none 
of these species are actually present, it's just our resident Mockingbird 
showing off. He's really ramped things up lately. Each time I hear the song of 
these yet-to-arrive migrants I perk up and look around, and I swear that Mocker 
looks my way as if to say "Gotcha!"
