Birdsong by a Mystery Bird-So Beautiful


Last week I was outside early and this was what I heard.

I can recognize the Western scrub jay's screeching and the crow cawing, but I do not know what bird has the very long complicated birdsong starting at about 20 seconds on the video. Even looking with my binoculars I could not see the bird who was serenading me on this autumn morning.

If anyone knows who the mystery bird is, please leave me a comment or email me with your ideas.

    I think she may right! I just popped over to the Cornell bird site and listened....yes, very much like the Northern Mockingbird. I will keep my eyes out.

    Thanks so much,

    Yes, it reminds me of the mockingbirds we have here in Arkansas. Their song changes constantly.

    I just asked my 4 year old son what he thought it was and he said "Peacock"...
