We have a robin that has been flying at one of our windows for the past few days. Almost every minute, there's a soft "thunk" as the bird hits the glass and then stares at it, almost looking in.

I found out this is a mating/protection pattern in that the robin sees its reflection as an adversary, and it'll stop once it finds a mate.

I'll let you know when I finally notice the absence of the "thunk". 😅

One of my favorite crow families is the "Hai" family, so named because they used to make a little huff I thought sounded like "Hi".

The "Dad" of the family is Skippy. He injured his foot a few months ago, so walks with it curled up.

Foot injuries are common among crows, and are very survivable.

2-3 weeks ago, he stopped coming to eat, but I'd see him feed his mate on the nest every now and then, so I figured it was #justbirdthings.

Thought of the evening:

Teasingly calling your smol bird friends your 'precious eggs' and then sitting on them to keep them warm. 💕

When you're a budgie keeper, you're always being watched.

When you have a #budgie there is no such thing as "your", it's "our" snack.
