Northern Mocking Bird

from 自然英语

You hear a lot about these birds and their abilities, but do you really know much about this bird. The Northern Mocking Bird can be found in Canada, and the Northern United States, during the winter they migrate south to Mexico. Mocking birds are omnivores so they eat a variety of foods including beetles, berries, as well as seeds. These birds are nocturnal during mating season but other than they look for food in the day. The Northern Mockingbirds predators include owls and snakes who sometimes steal their eggs. Mocking birds live with their same partner for the rest of their life, meaning they are monogamous. They have a lifespan of around 8 years and mate around three times a year. The thing that makes this bird different is its ability to make vocalizations copying other birds, as well as other objects. Some males are able to imitate 200 sounds, they make sounds during mating season to attract a mate. This is similar to the lyar bird who also has this ability. For wild Suzhou, I'm palm tree and thank you for listening.
