Bird ID

Anyone know what type of bird this is?
He/She has been fussing at me everytime I go in the garden.
Also, it looks as if it has been sampling the tomatoes as well.... not good!

Thanks,

Lee

Catbird - relative of Mockingbird and Brown Thrashers - probably similarly territorial.

Craig, I agree. We had Mockingbirds out here back in 2010. I think they liked tomatoes more than we did. I have no idea where they went or why, but I sure am glad they left.

You sure it's not a Mockingbird mocking a Catbird.
