Mockingbird central

The area around my work is a veritable nursery for Mockingbirds.
There are lots of small trees (new landscaping) and bushes in this area and that seems to be the mockers' favorite place to nest. An amazing number of nests are at eye level.
I've learned to home in on the baby birds high pitched whistle call and find them. See my pictures. I managed to get a parent, a nest and a fledgling on camera. The parents didn't attack for some reason.
