He's perched in one of the rose bushes on the side of the house. Mom is still looking out for him and will dive-bomb anyone who gets too close. I stole a shot while his mom was off getting food.

Thank you everyone!
@je suis moi, yes, a Mockingbird Mom makes a Tiger Mom look like a kitten. I think the mom is used to me and isn't dive-bombing me anymore. And since we have dogs (who aren't interested in the birds), predators like cats don't come into our yard, so the baby is relatively safe. -

What a precious shot of the baby Mockingbird. Glad to read that it is relatively safe in your yard : )
