Northern Mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos)

I took this photo a few days ago. Nothing new from yesterday as there was no light at all and I wound up taking several hundred shots at ISO1000 and binning the lot. Anyway, this bird came along and finished eating all the berries off the Dogwood tree (the ones the Grey Squirrels left). You can see the little orange stub by his tail. That was the last clump of berries prior to this one's breakfast. The nubs in the foreground are next spring's buds.
