even the robins are begging. took the grandkids fishing yesterday and no luck at the river so we stopped by a little city pond by the house on the way home, thought they may at least catch a few bluegill. I was sitting on a bench watching my granddaughter fish and had my grandson beside me we looked over and a robin was hopping down the sidewalk towards us. I told him to throw it a nightcrawler, so he threw a big ole nightcrawler in the grass beside the robin. took a few minutes for him to find it but he ate it and flew off. about 5 minutes later he flew back and stared at us. we threw him another nightcrawler and he drug it off in the grass and got about half down before a * bird came and took it from him.
he took off for about 5 minutes then flew back down on my side of the bench and stared at us again! I have never seen a robin beg for handouts, guess the country is in worse shape than I thought.........I'm on a fixed income and those nightcrawlers were $4.00 a dozen

He must have been a Democrat.
Robins and others birds are feeding nestlings right now.
BTW: Robins are one of the few birds that can digest earthworms. Most cannot.
All the Robins around here have packed up and left. I saw a note left at one of June's birdhouses that said see ya in Nov. '24. FJB.
What was the "*" bird? Musta been a bad named bird! Lol
bla ck .......?
Oh JEEZ! You GOTTA be kidding me!
I guess you should have known to refer to it as "a bird of color"?
LMAO, well at least we have the snowflakes taken care of with that sensor!
