Northern Mockingbird (Mimus polyglottos)
Saw this fellow at a local wildlife refuge, not far off was a red winged blackbird that they were well, mocking. For whatever reason, I thought it was a catbird when I first saw it.

This spooky season, meet a bird that feasts on blood. 🩸The Hood Mockingbird (Mimus macdonaldi) can be found on the Galapagos’ Española Island. Weighing in at about 2.5 oz (70 g), it typically dines on bird eggs, arthropods, and lizards. But during dry seasons, this bird uses its long hooked beak to probe the flesh of animals like iguanas, sea lions, and albatrosses—sucking up their blood to drink.

Mockingjay’s are peculiar birds born from a Songbird and a Capitol Mutt’s desire to survive.

Alven Pine, a deceitful mockingbird, uses all kinds of tricks to make sure his signed artists become stars. This A&R rep's got a good ear for music, and was himself once a singer - although he relied on stealing other bird's songs, rather than composing anything original himself. These days, he'd much rather let his artists do all the performing work. Sure, he'll get you the record deal - but at a cost.

I was thinking about alternate vigilante names for little Jason and I feel like Mockingbird just fits perfectly.
Mockingbirds are intelligent birds that can mimic and imitate the calls and sounds of various animals (which goes with that one post I saw about little Jason learning to mimic Nightwing and Batman's voices so criminals would be caught off guard when they got their ass kicked by Robin or Red Hood, later on). Mockingbirds are also great at hiding and can easily be overlooked, unlike let's say, a Robin. :)
A big part of little Jason's character was also family and wild Mockingbirds are some of the most vicious when it comes to safeguarding their family, symbolizing safety, family unity, and firm boundaries.
In To Kill a Mockingbird the death of a Mockingbird is a representation of the loss of innocence, specifically by coming into contact with evil.
Jason being killed by the Joker after doing his best to protect Sheila, destroying Bruce and their family unit in a way that they never fully recovered from, coming back with none of the hope and innocence he had once had.
Is that not perfect or am I just crazy?
I know the mysterious leader of the Secret Six is called Mockingbird in DC but I love this so much.
Also, the name Robin remaining a sole part of Dick's identity and him deciding to give that piece of himself to Damian rather than it being forcibly taken away like in canon makes me ridiculously happy
