Three species of mimids to compare: Brown Thrasher, Northern Mockingbird,
and Gray Catbird. All sound similar, but are easily distinguished.
Thrashers generally repeat phrases twice, then move on to the next
phrase. Mockingbirds repeat phrases 3-7 times before moving on to
the next phrase, while catbirds do not generally repeat phrases.
