Robins

This picture was taken right outside my front door on the morning of February 23, 2017, here in Wilmington, NC, up in Kings Grant. The birds are what appear to be a flock of robins (Turdus Migratorius). The birds seem to be competing for a resource on the ground. The resource is most likely sustenance in the form of seeds or dew for water. From the looks of it, the birds were performing scramble, exploitative, intraspecific competition. This is because the birds were not interfering with each other to access the resource (exploitative), all of the birds had access to all of the resource, therefore leaving resource allotment up to individual ability to consume the resource (scramble), and all of the birds seemed to be of the same species (intraspecific).
