Every night, same branch outside my window, same little concert in my yard.
I thought it was a cardinal - but not quite like a cardinal.
It’s definitely not a cardinal.
Turns out it’s a Northern Mockingbird.
Now I can’t un-here it switches, little mashups of other birds.
Kind of amazing once you realize what you’re listening to.
If you’re hearing a “cardinal… but off” at night… it’s probably one of these guys.
