Join Southern Maryland Audubon for our monthly ZOOM nature talk, “How Mockingbirds Dupe Us” @ 7 p.m. Wednesday, April 2.
Mockingbirds have fascinated humans for thousands of years with their ability to imitate the sounds of other species, but scientists have studied vocal mimicry in this species for only a few decades. For the past 20 years, Dave Gammon’s research has focused on basic questions like “Which species get mimicked by mockingbirds and why?” and “How do mockingbirds vary over time in their mimicry?”
