Hauling wood

Westerville, Ohio view map

A Northern Mockingbird carries a twig in its beak as it sits in a tree in Sharon Woods Metro Park near Columbus, Ohio.
I've seen a number of juvenile Mockingbirds in the area in recent weeks, so I'm not sure if this adult bird is late building
a nest or simply gathering material to reinforce a nest after a heavy rain. Additional bird images are in my Animals gallery.
