Mockingbirds are mimics, they don’t produce their own song instead they imitate other birds, frogs, and even car horns. These sounds are learned, memorized, and then incorporated into the mockingbird’s repertoire. This makes mockingbird songs unique to each bird. Songs are long series of phrases repeated 2-6 times before shifting to a new sound. Mockingbirds are open-ended learners, meaning they can learn new songs throughout their adulthood. Many males can have up to 200 songs in their repertoi
