Mister Cardinal Is Fed Up With Cowbirds

Mister Cardinal Is Fed Up With Cowbirds

Song Sparrow parents raised 3 Brown Headed Cowbird parasites and at the time of these video clips Mister Cardinal had just about had enough of the song sparrow's peculiarly annoying parasite family! Either the song sparrow parents were ferrying food back to their giant nestlings or shoveling precious food into a ginormous parasite fledgling's gaping mouth or the rotund fledglings were just parked in the way taking up space on his favorite platform, In any case Mr Cardinal had to put his foot – I mean “beak” down. Which I'm sure left a mark. The desperate need to feed their mammoth kids lead the song sparrow parents to try and stand up to the cardinal with predictable results. And the fledglings being the true parasite slackers they were showed no respect for Mr Angry Bird leading to an ill-advised confrontation that probably left an indelible mark on the cowbird. I love this look on the fledgling experiencing rejection and discipline for the first time in its young life. Of course this was just too much cowbird for Mr. cardinal to bear so I spread more food around to different places so they could eat in peace.
