American Robin (Turdus migratorius)Observer
natureguyDescription
Two species here... the Robin (adult) and Cedar Waxwings (nestlings).
These Cedar Waxwing nestlings are pictured here with heir FOSTER parent. That's right.
This takes some explanation, and this story was full of twists and turns, but far too long to detail here.

gljcrsmithDescription
I heard that a house wren ate a spider the other day. It seems like the wren is really living up to its name and protecting its turf from unwanted creepy crawlies. Personally, I prefer my spiders on the web and not on my plate, but to each their own!
