Re: Baby Mockingbird Stranded in Yard

Northern mockingbirds are among the most aggressive birds in the area in terms of defending their territories, including their nests. I suspect you did well and the baby mocker has earned its wings or moved to a safer locale with the guidance of its parents. They don't hang around long once their stomachs outstretch their parents ability to keep all those mouths fed!
