Just curious as to what this lil fellow is. He flew into the window on my patio, I grabbed my 70-300, stuck it on, went outside, and then he flew into the window again, then landed on a chair about 3 feet in front of me, I grabbed these two then it took off.

I had never seen one before either, and I have lived here my whole life! I did see a mockingbird come land on one of the chairs for a second while this guy was chillin on the ground, maybe some kind of rivalry going on? I know in the info I found on them it says the two are related
