Change of pace

Mockingbirds seem to prefer high perches at the Franciscan Monastery, like the statue of St. Francis, but this one was down in the weeds, so to speak.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

Sharp capture . We have mockingbirds too, but they look very different. In winter they migrate to South Africa

The mockingbirds have been eating my tomatoes. They are pretty clever and will eat most anything. I'll bet there were some bugs hiding in that grass. V
