Mockingbird Song Serenade

This is a non-edited audio clip of a Mockingbird outside my window. The audio clip has not been modified in any way (lengthened, pasted etc.)

[@AxelBushing]

I once heard a mockingbird imitate a Dusky Seaside Sparrow, some fifteen years after the Duskies were officially declared extinct. This indicates that some songs are learned from the parent birds and passed down through generations. A type of bird music culture, if you will.

[@marksavage7602]

Ok, already being amazed by Mockingbirds, and having a rescued one for a companion, I am stunned at your comment. To think that they had mimicked a bird that is now extinct and that song or call was passed down is just incredibly interesting.

[@groomedtodie]

Mark Savage well they copy what they hear almost indiscriminately, so of course they'd keep copying older mocking birds with different songs. They don't care if it's an extinct bird or a car alarm. I even got one to copy my whistle as a kid.

[@PrussianEngineer]

Axel Bushing maybe the dusky seaside sparrow isn't actually extinct, we just don't know where to find them

[@AugustMeteors]

Something strange and beautiful and immeasurably sad about that. In South Australia, the lyrebird expertly mimics the sound of chainsaws cutting down its environment.

[@flashlitestriker4028]

Wow, Axel! How cool! Thanks for sharing that!

[@TheGeekMonster]

I absolutely LOVE mockingbirds, even in the middle of the night lol. It's an entire concert in one bird. They are truly amazing.

[@kraziezombie]

So funny I came here cause I'm having the same "lil singer" just outside my window now. He's been singing non stop for the past 2-3 weeks now! I actually love it since it helps with my depression.

[@bloomingtwigs9670]

It’s “ a” depression! It’s not you🤗‼️kick that depression out the door!!

Truly amazing birds. I'm playing this clip outside, and a mockingbird decided to visit my porch about 4 feet from where I'm sitting. She didn't sing back, just looked at me quizzically. ❤

[@elisenavarro2086]

I plan on playing this outside tomorrow while watching my hummingbirds. I often play similar clip of hummingbirds to make them buzz closer to me. I'm curious about this video! 🐦🥰

[@GHOSTbirdnatureLOVER]

Even though they're gray, mockingbirds have gorgeous white and black wings and an awesome-looking shape. They are some of the smartest, most talented, and best singing birds ever. They're my second favorite bird. These birds started my love of birds, they are that awesome. Gotta love mockingbirds...they really make memories.

[@carpy1252]

I love them too, and it's probably because they are so reliable in my yard. So if they're your second favorite who's your first?

[@nawzyah]

[@cyyyggnus]

What a lot of people don't realize: If you hear a lone mockingbird singing at night, and begin walking or riding a bicycle away from it - in any direction - as you get to the edge of the ordinal bird's range - you will begin hearing another mockingbird!! Go away from this one (again, in any direction) and you will pick up another! In the quiet night hours when no other birds are vocalizing, the mockingbirds come out and form a network that blankets the land. I think it's way more than individuals staking out territory or looking for mates...

[@Katmandu2]

I heard a pair of Mocking birds loudly singing at 2AM... They were 100 feet apart from one another.

[@straightlearner3000]

Thank you!

[@janetskene3413]

The way they seem to be blanketing the land is an interesting observation. Is this the reason why the mainstream media is referred to as the Mockingbird Media?

[@ikigai47]

I tried this multiple times, it didn't work. They're just looking for mates and your scenario was likely a coincidence

[@ninadivine1]

That's what's happening outside my bedroom window right now. I just went outside to see if I could find it and I was able to a pretty good look at it in my neighbors tree in their front yard and there's another one also probably about 100 feet away. Its very cool.

[@redfoxgirls8666]

Back in 1950 I received my engagement ring and that night the Mocking Bird sang for hours just outside my bedroom window.

[@trains4384]

[@alansader2402]

It is fascinating, almost hypnotic, to listen to the infinite variety. I think some Mockingbirds are more artful in their presentation than others. This one is a little raucous, while others are more delicate...In fact, this guy gets better as he goes on. I do not hear the same pattern more than once in his repertoire. I LOVE IT!

[@bobwhitley8517]

I was brought a little Mocker a few days ago. I have been feeding him wet cat food and live meal worms. He is sitting in his cage beside me at work and your recording helped him go to sleep. Thanks!!

It didn't disturb me at all! Unfortunately, I don't hear him anymore, and wonder what happened to him. ( I hope my cats didn't have anything to do with it) I miss hearing it sing it's lullabys.

[@UsernameBarbF]

We recently moved to Washington from California and the one thing I miss so much is the songs of the mockingbirds in our yard. I'd wake up in the middle of the night smiling and think, what in the heck am I smiling about and then I'd hear them and know. I don't know that I'd call them aggressive, but they are definitely protective of the babies! If their nests/babies are safe, they never tended to cause any trouble--at least not the ones in our yard. Also, depending on the sounds of your neighborhood, their songs vary. The songs our guys sang seemed more flowing and less choppy than this one, but this one is beautiful too. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@42percent]

Wow! I finally found out what the bird is that sings at night in our neighborhood. It has the most amazing song I have ever heard. Lately he has been singing all night long and starts up again at about 7:30 am. I love listening to his song.

Fascinating, both the bird song and the human comments. Now I appreciate the title of To Kill a Mockingbird because I understand why, in fact, a person would be so annoyed they would want to kill one.

For all those whose badly needed night's sleep has been ruined by a mockingbird (or an annoying human being), I pray for future quiet nights.

Dunno ! Personally I find it easier to fall asleep with these sounds

I have this pleasant visitor in my frontyard. And especially took notice, when my mom passed. I noticed it three days after was looking at me thru my window accross the rooftop. I love it. I just wished this video was edited to remove the sounds of the motor vehicles engines passing by...
