That actually may be the problem here. Like Klingons, perhaps mocking birds see retreat as weakness. Maybe try chirping BACK at them. Shout a Qapla or two their way. See if that doesn't sort their dispositions. Share a jug of blood wine. OH! A plate of gagh should do the trick!

The saga continues. Went around the back again, BOTH mockingbirds fly back, they perch on opposite ends of the back porch to guard it. They start divebombing my dog, who chases them back easily. I'm holding the dog leash so I kind of wave it around and they fly back out front and we go inside. But as soon as we leave them come back to guard the area briefly again.
The one that seems to know who I am is making new, angrier sounding noises than it did before.
