Hi Folks,
This morning, after breakfast, at the Waterford Assisted Living in Bellevue
(West of Nashville, Davidson County), a mockingbird attracted my attention as
it hopped about the patio outside the dining room. I went to the edge of
the patio and sprinkled some biscuit crumbs. "Mock" responded immediately,
and
I "shot" it with my Canon-digital, as it ate hungrily away at its new found
food source. Bet I am not the first human that bird has cajoled into feeding
it. Ahhh, another mockingbird "friend,"or suppose one if mine followed me
the six air miles from home to here????????? Impossible????????? Don't know.
Bet'cha this baby is local!
Cheers & grand birding,
Dee Thompson
Nashville, TN
