They can be quite "mean" if their nests are threatened. I think they are a very pretty bird. How often we are prone not to listen and hear the bird songs when we are outdoors, but life would be so different without them.sandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17355232032181406759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258431463372570480.post-66306579136177143592012-10-11T08:23:02.227-05:002012-10-11T08:23:02.227-05:00Mockingbird - we don´t have those over here natura...Mockingbird - we don´t have those over here naturally.<br />Probably I have heard one or two of the songs you mentioned.<br />The bird looks so innocent and cute.mettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13732534795009852825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258431463372570480.post-58591690670671228842012-10-10T14:37:54.400-05:002012-10-10T14:37:54.400-05:00Sissy, I'm sure it brought back the same memor...Sissy, I'm sure it brought back the same memories for you as it did for me! Patti Page was a great singer.<br /><br />Ida, what a great movie To Kill a Mockingbird was/is. I watch it whenever I see it's going to be on TV. Did you know that Harper Lee, the author of the book, was an Alabamian, and is still alive? Sadly, her masterpiece novel was the only book she ever published.<br /><br />MrsLittleJeans, what a lovely piece of music that was.<br /><br />Darry, thanks for your comment! Music was so simple and wonderful back then!<br /><br />Patricia, thanks, and glad the song brought back memories for you as well. A lump in the throat is OK from time to time!<br /><br />Helen, don't we love the memories of the old days when times were less complicated. Or did it just seem so? I'm sure our parents thought the times even then were complicated.<br /><br />Areeda, what a memory that song must bring back for you!! I wonder if the Nashville TV station has the tapes of your pantomime performances? Or perhaps you have them? I would dearly LOVE to see them. How special that was seeing our cousin on TV each Saturday afternoon. Good times!!sandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17355232032181406759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-258431463372570480.post-4093376267451349142012-10-10T09:45:52.218-05:002012-10-10T09:45:52.218-05:00Sanda, thanks for reminding us of those wonderful ...Sanda, thanks for reminding us of those wonderful bygone days!! Loved the story. Love the spirit of a mockingbird - I, too, have been on the receiving end of their rant! The mention of that song and Patti Page took me back to when I would "pantomine" that song by her when I was a mere 18-19 yr old.:-) Thanks!!!

Music has such a powerful way of taking us to another time and place, back to childhood and a more innocent time.

I too still play the tune on the piano and think of the words often, When I went to You Tube, listed to a whole album of Patti Page and it was bittersweet! Such good, wonderful music of the past makes you feel so good but sad by what has replaced it. I love the mockingbird ahd enjoy watching them in my yard,<br />Thanks and enjoyed this very much.Edith Kenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064143456339054752noreply@blogger.com
