Eastern Phoebe

The Phoebe is the first bird to welcome very early spring where I live. Although they overwinter here, they are pretty quiet, but as soon as the weather warms just a tad, you will hear "FEEbee...FEEbee" all morning long.

Carolina Chickadee

Another bird that is all gussied up and ready for a night on the town (and is also TOO cute!)

Northern Mockingbird

I have a friend, that shall remain nameless, that told me he and his friend did (some kind of mind altering substance) one night and listened to the mockingbird that was singing all night long, and they can confirm that it definitely NEVER repeats the same pattern EVER.
