Description I had a family of northern mockingbirds outside my window during the summer. I got to watch them grow up so I got attached to them. It was sad to see the day they all hopped out of the nest. Luckily, I got a picture of one of them before they all flew the coop.. or in their case tumbled out of the coop.

Oh yeah! I named him Pee Wee!

Camera: Nikon D90

I think I see him hopping around the yard as of late! Or at least one of his brothers or sisters.

I had a nest a couple years ago that I got to watch. But sadly, a hawk raded the nest and killed the parents. The hawk also dropped all of the eggs out of the nest
