[mou] mockingbird in Cook Co.

[Jim & Carol Tveekrem]

A northern mockingbird is living up to its name by heading up the north
shore this morning.  Bird is hanging about in small trees and grass near the
intersection of Baraga Cross Rd. and Highway 61 in Schroeder.  Has perched
on the fence above highway rest stop on north side of road, and poked about
small woods on the lake side.  One bold chickadee inspected the mocker and
evidently decided it was not a shrike since the chickadee did not start any
mobbing or alarm behavior.  Mockingbird was singing softly at times.
