I think the mockingbird is taking Hawk "Song" lessons! Just fantastic that you encountered these two together AND you had a camera ready. #10214977

Thank you Laura, Michelle & Linda!!!
The hawk is our local nest raiser. The Mocking Bird was protection her nest by attacking & fussing at him. He has raided 3 nest thus far that I know of and has also tried to grab my 5lb dog Gypsy. This hawk is scared of nothing!
