I write a bird column in one of island papers so I get a lot of strange calls about birds. Today someone said they had seen a junco feeding a larger grey bird earlier in the year. I started to assume it was a cowbird. They said they saw it again recently still begging and being fed except for now it was about robin sized with a faintly red breast. They know towhees well enough to know it's not a towhee. Would a junco end up feeding a robin somehow?
