"For those who might know how to ID these...I tracked down a different looking mockingbird on Saturday...it appeared a bit larger than normal, and seemed to have quite a bit of brown on its sides. Also, when it flew, I didn't notice any white barring underwing. By all descriptions I've seen, this could be a Bahama mockingbird. I unfortunately didn't get any wonderful shots of it...but did get one - you can't see much of the body or the outstretched wings, but maybe those of you who really know your stuff can find something else to help ID this one, as I'd like to know if it was a Bahama or not:

It was at Gumbo Limbo in Boca Raton, out in the mangrove trees near the intercoastal."
