Grenada: A Pair of Tropical Mockingbirds
What lovely songsters these mockingbirds were! We heard them from first thing in the morning through to the evening when they would all roost in the White Trumpet Tree in front of our cottage. Their singing is beautiful compared to the shrill little noise the Bananaquits make, and sometimes it seemed like they were purposely trying to outsing them. While not the most colorful of birds, we truly enjoyed the music they made for us.
