What is it with these mockingbirds? For the past two days we have a mockingbird obsessed with our car. He sits on it, flaps his wings and flutters about the windshield and sits on the door looking in the mirror, pecking at the window and just chittin’ all over the door. It’s comical except for the poop. :mad:

It's a purple Lumina

Usually in the summer a mockingbird sits on the power lines and sings, I don't know if this is the same one.
