Mockingbird - Barclay James Harvest

Rain, Sea, Surf, Sand, Clouds and Sky, 

Hush, now baby don't you cry.
There's a Mockingbird singing songs in the trees, 

There's a Mockingbird singing songs just for you and me.

Mockingbird - Barclay James Harvest

 Having booked the taxi for 08:00, by half past the hour it was dawning on me that my sense of judging character was beginning to fail me? Claudio had appeared to be reliable and hard working so as he had given me his card I was certainly willing to give him the benefit of any doubt and a phone call. It was all in the language difficulty, while 8 had been stated he interpreted that as 10, and was soon on his way to get me.

which raises a further issue of which of the 4 sub-species it might be?

Myrtle, Audubon's, Black-fronted or Goldman's

a potential 4 'splits' here?
