I encountered all three mimids this morning before I was halfway down
the driveway to fetch the newspaper (admittedly it's a longish
driveway). The nearby mockingbird was showing off his repertoire, which
features excellent towhee and phoebe imitations; lots of catbirds were
dashing about; and an adult Brown Thrasher was perched quietly near its
equally silent fledgling.
