A northern mockingbird’s nest uses an array of unusual materials, including sticks, stems, bits of fabric and string, and the birds prefer to build nests between 3-10 feet off the ground. The eggs of a northern mockingbird are just 1 inch long with a bluish-green color and dark brown speckles or splotches.
