Mockingbirds are very territorial. Anything preceived as a threat or anything that encroaches upon its territory is a target. They will even chase red-tailed hawks.

In addition, like certain other birds (e.g., grackles and Blackbirds), they can be fairly aggressive in protecting their nests. When they feel their babies are threatened, they won't hesitate to dive-bomb or chase bigger animals. This behavior persists the chicks are vulnerable.
