Follow Mother Mockingbird on a heartfelt journey across Texas After her chicks drift off to sleep, Mother Mockingbird takes flight. From Houston to Amarillo, she visits many of the places that make Texas special. While she attends rodeos, barbecues, and honky-tonks, she thinks about her babies sleeping peacefully in their nest. She knows that we, as Texans, carry the ones we love in our hearts, no matter where we go.
