I just found out that mockingbirds love cantaloupe seeds! They seem to go crazy over them. We are still watching the activity. I recommend putting some out and observing them.
I had always thought these talented birds mostly ate just insects, but, according to the State of Maryland site, mockingbirds are very big on some berrys, including holly and blackberry.

Most books I've consulted (seeking an answer to the same question) say that the call which sounds like a cat mewing is responsible for the name. However, I've also observed that when a cat is around, the catbird will perch above the cat and call repeatedly and loudly (mew, mew, mew). Often other catbirds will answer with the same call.

The unmockable, presumably, cannot be mocked. So, you're limited to mocking the mockable ... if you feel the urge to mock something.
