It's offensive how they feel they own My Yard. Swooping down at me with their fowl language. They are too much! I had thought the year we had the one mocker that made a dead on impression of a car alarm in the middle of the night was the worst we could expect. I was wrong.
Yesterday morning Mom was driving down the block when she reported that two mockers flew directly at her car. Like the laws of motion (and splat) did not apply to them.
Dad walked out into the garage that evening and reported that Lady Mockington was in the garage and was perched on a shelving unit! Right there, in my own house (well close enough), a mocker. She proceeded to scold Dad for being in her space. He said he was expecting her to reach over take something off the Xmas shelf she sat on and make her nest right there.
Dad startled her off, but I suspect we have not heard (or seen) the last of these winged menaces. Apparently there's mockers over at my friends place (The Katnip Lounge) too. Take a look at this cheeky tweet.

You need some help with those nommy little cheeps? I can send Hamlet over and he can catch them for us to nom together on the veranda...
ReplyDeleteWow. Those mockers sound really annoying AND rude. We don't have any of them here unless crows count. They (crows) perch outside our window and CAW rudely at us!
ReplyDelete...Cosmo and Ling
I had no idea that there were birds out there that had Binga personalities!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Rumble ! You need to give all kitty to help you to shut them up...and you should know something, You call me an Expert ; )
ReplyDeleteYeah, Fin, there are six troopers ove here who can help you catch them mockers. The cheek of them, eh? purrr...meow!
ReplyDeleteWe can help too! :evil larf:
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, Fin! We don't have mockingbirds as much here in the northeast. Julie says she misses them from her growing up in Maryland, so you can shoosh them here and we'll both be happy ::smacks lips::!!

Austin would like to get his jaws around one of those! I wouldn't, but they really shouldn't use such language around a Granny Cat!! :)

ReplyDeleteBe careful of the Mockingtons they can be danjeruss! We seen them attack a skwerl!
ReplyDeleteWhat nerve!!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you may have to cut back on your napping, Fin. You know, just to keep an eye on things!
they have the biggest nerve and you need some help my friend I think I need to rev the boogie mat up and get over there to help you..Hugs GJ x
ReplyDeleteThose Mockingtons are the worst. We have all those Mock cousins right here in South Carolina. And the swoop down and attack us too. They are not nice birds. We have made a couple of them deaded, thank heavens and Mom wasn't even upset. Take care Fin and be careful of the Mockingtons.
ReplyDeleteyow! Fin, this is like "The Birds" or something...those evil Mockers are here too! and up to their...evilness...be careful!
ReplyDeletePip, Smidgen, minnie, Hollie
Those birdies need to be taught a lesson.
ReplyDeleteHow DARE they mock you.
ReplyDeleteI don't have any mockingbirds, but plenty of others. Even THEY mock me!
Just one little taste. That's all I ask.
xo Katie
Nice photo!...thank you for your kind words on my blog. ;)
ReplyDeleteThere is only one thing to do....you need to go outside and stalk them. We send Hobbes out to get rid of our blue heron, but that darn bird is so big, it scares the bajeezes out of Hobbes. He is a chicken. But at least we give him the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteGo get 'em, Fin!
