Robins Interesting Beak
I still do not have my camera back from being repaired, but it is now supposed to be done this Friday. Whew, talk about a test of patience! Anyway, while looking back through my set of shots from a recent Robin encounter, I again came across one that (to me anyway) clearly shows a hinged lower beak on this Robin. I still cannot find anything online about this, but to my untrained eye, it looks like the purpose of this beak structure is to help hold food and perhaps help it on its way down the gullet. I am looking forward to finally going out shooting again this weekend. Hope all my Flickr friends are doing well!
