My yard is large enough and it seems they all share well except for the catbird/mockingbird. Although comments are welcome, those inferring common sense be used, interfering with nature or
a live and let live philosophy is uncalled for. I was only asking for ideas which might allow us to more fully enjoy Cardinals nesting in our rhaphiolepis.

From the replies here, apparently I asked the wrong question: "What might we try that would discourage catbird/mockingbird from thinking they own the whole yard?"
It sounds to me like I'm to let nature be. Other than themoonhowl mentioning using a water gun, there were no recommendations to answer my question.

Let me ask instead; Are there any recommendations for encouraging Cardinals to nest in our shrubbery? They come into the rhaphiolepis (not rhododendron) bush, but get chased out almost immediately.

I have thoughts of erecting a 4' tall lattice screen on the yard side of the bush and planting roses to vine up it. My thinking, this may give the cardinals more privacy while causing the attacking bird to encounter a flight barrier.
