This Cowbird was dive-bombed by the Evening Grosbeak you can just see behind it. I've noticed that the Cowbird isn't popular.
They came to a peaceful settlement:
I was about to do "Pine Grosbeaks on snowy feeder" but too darn tired so am saving it for later.

Yes! Dark-eyed Junco. My eyes were nearly closed but I did notice the whitish breast, dismissed it and carried on my merry way, sorry! And thank you
I'm stlll off-duty, trying to chill.

Here's the first bit. I ended up not editing this because it shows the continuing behaviour of one particular female, what a harridan!

Must remember to use that word before the year is over!
I believe that is a Coopers hawk (just cos I recently had reason to look it up, not cos I'm any kind of birder!)

Well you're more kinds of a birder than I am, CC
Coincidentally, I just noticed a reply from my expert YouTuber - it feels good to post a confirmation rather than a contradiction
