Shortly after sunrise, I found this male Brewer’s Blackbird watching over his territory. His female partner was nearby, on a fence post; unfortunately, she looked sick. A while later, I found the same two birds foraging on the ground, and confirmed that the female had a broken or diseased leg. It’s sad to see, but it is part of nature - and besides, she seemed to be hanging in there just fine, hopping around on one leg and pecking for food. In any case, it was a pleasure to spend a few minutes with this beautiful species.

 

I appreciate all comments, faves, and follows.
