A Northern Mockingbird, apparently with nothing better to do at 2:30 in the
morning, was blissfully, repeatedly, making the same sound as my alarm
clock.

I was listening to ours one night and I swear it sounded like a ringing
telephone at one point. I've heard of bowerbirds imitating cameras and cars
horns. Do our mockingbirds copy our racket, too?
