We saw a juvenile Mockingbird in the last fenced area of the dog park of Magnuson Park, out towards the water, at around 6:15pm. Watched it for about a minute, and it surprisingly wasn't too alarmed by the dogs. It even foraged on the ground a little - a bit risky with predator-canines around! Fortunately our dog isn't interested in birds unless they're plump and slow-moving, neither of which could be said for this scruffy-looking teenage Mockingbird.
