Northern Mockingbird
Every year in early April the Mulberry Trees bear fruit at Ft. Desoto County Park, Pinellas County, Florida. The migratory birds love to stop over and binge on the ripe fruit. A few of the berries are ripe, the peak is a few days to a week off. I captured this image yesterday.

You did a good job getting a fun pose on the bird with the mulberries. It would really have improved your image had the bird looked a little more your way. Unfortunately, there are those days that the birds just don't turn or they are moving too fast.
