Larger than N. Mockingbird. Bahama Mockingbird?

This bird was photographed in the middle Florida Keys, Aug. 13th. It was larger than a Northern Mockingbird. We see Northern Mockingbirds often here, and this bird did not behave like one, was bigger than one, and was ruffled (so marking difficult to decipher. Its a tough one, please give a guess. There are a few more photos at the link.

Sorry, I had to put a link since inserting an image doesn't work.

I have a large fig tree, and I have to get up early in the AM and pick because the mockingbirds love to peck and sample every fig. They are like kids that bite off a piece of candy and put it back in the box.

We had so many grasshopper last year our bird population was smaller. Most of the birds will not touch the live grasshoppers as they give off a foul smell. This one must have found a deceased food sample.

Re: Please help identify bird with white wing patch

I agree with the first reply that is a Northern Mockingbird. The white patch is simply some of the underwing color showing through because of the way the bird's feathers are settled at the moment -- if it's bathing, the feathers would be ruffled and somewhat out of place.

These birds are well known for their showy approaches -- like actors who must "make an entrance" wherever they go! The flashing white of the underwing and tail in contrast to the gray of their body is their signature.

Beautiful Mockingbird

Think this came out very well, he landed on a tree about six foot from where I was sitting in a car! Stayed for a few photos, thankfully! LOL
