Birds of Kentucky: Northern Mockingbird 2020-12-29 - Central Kentucky - Photo by Pen. All About Birds has this to say about the Northern Mockingbird: "The Northern Mockingbird enjoys making its presence known. It usually sits conspicuously on high vegetation, fences, eaves, or telephone wires, or runs and hops along the ground. Found alone or in pairs throughout the year, mockingbirds aggressively chase off intruders on their territory." Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
