The State bird of Texas....

 look who we met at the park today...
a baby Mocking bird...
 
 it just sat there and posed for us...
Pawpaw explained about the Momma birds...
especially Mockingbird Momma's...
how they will attack if they think their baby is in danger...
(Hubby learned from experience)...
 

 we had wind gusts of up to 30 miles per hour today...
 
 
the Momma bird was keeping a close eye...
 
 she was also gathering lunch....
 
 it was nice to be able to take a break....
get out and enjoy a little Mother nature today...
then back to the office....
May is slipping away too quickly...
some little boy I know...
not mentioning any names...
will be 4 next month...
how can that possibly be????

What fantastic shots of the baby bird. Your hubby and Hotrod being able to get so close...amazing! Yep, those mocking birds will attack. Hugs!

That baby mockingbird is so fluffy!!! And if it was a windy day, I know why he is just sitting there - likely took all his strength to get that far!

The mockingbird baby sure is cute.
Kids grow way too fast! I wonder if mama mockingbird feels the same way?
