For 2 days I've been trying to locate the source of a somewhat
familiar sound, whose origin I could not remember.
Today, while hanging off the side of my house removing an old awning
(all my neighbors were sure happy to see THAT thing come down) I
heard it again.
Trying not to let the ladder lean too much to the downhill side, and
trying not to put too much weight on the now partially-connected thin
aluminum rod, I peered over the top to see a Northern Mockingbird
tending to 2 fledglings. Hopefully I won't forget the sound in the
future!
