The story of the bird

About the bird
Mimus polyglottos is the great mimic of North American gardens. A male’s repertoire commonly contains more than 150 distinct song types, woven from other birds’ calls and even a squeaky gate hinge, and he adds new material throughout his life.
In the tradition of Audubon, drawn in the careful naturalist manner, printed on archival paper to last.
