Meet the Master of the Mimic--The Mockingbird! He is CONSTANTLY singing, especially at night; Is VERY territorial; And is an Omnivorous Bird in MANY of the US States--- It is actually the State Bird of FIVE States (Texas, Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, and Tennessee). Have you ever heard 10 or 15 DIFFERENT Birds singing outside in an ENDLESS String?! You probably didn't/don't ACTUALLY have SEVERAL Bird Species singing, BUT INSTEAD a Master Mimic singing all of their Songs himself.

DID YOU KNOW… In the 19th Century People appreciated the Mockingbird and their, ALOMOST 200 Songs, so MUCH that they were Sold (for as MUCH as $50) and kept in Cages---The birds nearly vanished due to people trapping them!

These Photos were taken on October 4, 2025 at Okeeheelee Park (South) in West Palm Beach, FL with a Canon EOS 20D Camera (and additional Lenses) on the Sports/Action Setting.

"In the Egret's Flight, Find Freedom; In it's Stillness, Find Peace."

These Photos, of a Great Egret in Flight, were taken on August 27, 2025 at the Wellington Environmental Preserve, in Wellington, FL with a Canon EOS 20D Camera on the Landscape and/or Sports/Action Setting.

Although they are a commonly seen Bird, HERE, in Southern Florida, I LOVE to Photograph them, especially when in Flight!
