A6 THE MOCKING BIRD
THIS unrivaled Orpheus of the forest inhabits the milder regions
of the western world in either hemisphere. Like his European
compeer, the Nightingale, the Mocking-bird is of sober
plumage ; but his form is beautiful and his motions are easy, rapid
and graceful; he seems perpetually animated with a playful caprice
and a look that appears full of intelligence,
He exactly imitates the notes of all other birds; he is fond of
man and is full of life and action whether in the open or in captivity.
It is during the season of rearing its young that this sublime
songster exhibits its extraordinary powers to their fullest capacity.
He imitates the warble of the Canary, the lisping of the Indigo-
bird, the mellow whistle of the Cardinal, all being so truly rendered
that it is difficult to believe this flood of song as proceeding from a
single bird.
