American Robin: Spring is really here
We have an abundance of Robins, so while trying to shoot today's Scaups Chris got this one.
Hi! I have been looking at the weirdest Robin... Looks like a Robin.. a very thin female. It has a tuft on her head!! At first I thought it was a sad looking female cardinal. Definately a robin.The male is usually with her. Nice and plump with wonderful colour, and sooooo henpecked!!!!! lol. I watched them on the lawn a few days ago. He was having a time of pulling something from the ground.She got tired of waiting for him, so she went up to him.. chased him away.. and proceded to remove whatever it was herself... lol too funny. He stood several feet away from her and watched. Has there ever been any type of cross overs of these two species(cardinal/robin) so strange looking.
