Mockingbirds are a group of New World passerine birds from the Mimidae family.There are about 17 kinds in three genera. Mockingbird is known for its long, complex songs that include imitations of many other birds. It is a common bird of hedgerows and suburbs, and has been slowly expanding its range northward.Besides its own rapturous song, the mockingbird's repertoire has been known to include over 40 different sounds including the barking of a dog. Mockingbirds can be fiercely territorial during the mating season as they defend their nests and territories. Watching their behavior can be quite thrilling. The Mockingbird is a very important visitor to your backyard. Not only is it's song enchanting, but they will help to eat many of your nuisance garden insects! Gardens are among its favorite dwelling places especially if winter berries are available.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mockingbird.
