Mockingbird in my garden. Enjoy their singing even in the middle of the night.

The Northern Mockingbird is the state bird of Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas!

When you're walking around with your camera looking for a neat photo to snap and there it is!

An Arkansas squirrel.
Busy little creatures who live around our home, gathering acorns, pecans and apples.
