Default Catbird

What does the scarecrow sound like?

I have decided that if 'my' mockingbirds ever come back and nest in the
large bush in my backyard I'm going to set up a tape recorder w/just a

loop
of that whistle noise from The Good, The Bad & The Ugly - ooo e ooo e

ooooo-
and teach them that. I bet the catbirds could have learned it too.

I hope they come back and I hope it works! I wonder how long it takes

them
to learn?

We were camping a few weeks back, and my 5 year old found a mockingbird that
knew how to do the wheee-who-whit...ya know that whistle that says, "Hey you
over there, Hey! HEY!"
