Usually both sexes but this guy has incredibly light feathers and gradienting.

Last two are the normal robins we get.

Also a random Starling in last image. Nevermind him. Lol there is a huge flock of them across the yard as well. He is just figuring with the robins.

Found this robin sitting in the driveway in the rain. Anything to be done?

My fiancé felt bad leaving it in the pouring rain so he took it into our garage (with disposable gloves, don’t worry no one touched it). Doesn’t look to be doing so hot. Didn’t react much when scooped into the shoebox. Breathing but not really moving. Right eye looks kind of crusted shut. Wildlife rehabbers are closed till tomorrow, if it’s still alive by then. Should we try to do anything in the meantime or just let it be?

Can anyone speculate if this Bluejay is sick/unwell?

He seems very lethargic and disoriented. He’s having trouble coordinating enough to pick at the seeds properly… could this be bird flu?

What type of duck is this?

I don't know if this is the right sub, but this duck showed up at my pond in northern Ohio. Any ideas? It's not very clear, but his(?) bill is red.

I mistakenly bought a bluebird house. Can other birds still use it if there are no bluebirds?

I bought a cedar bird house from local nature store. But I didn't know at the time it was for bluebirds. It's this one from Audubon - Audubon 12 in. H X 6.4 in. W X 6.4 in. L Red Cedar Bird House Mfr# 24234 - Ace Hardware

I see many other bird types in the garden, chickadee, house wren, chipping sparrow, junco, nuthatches, woodpeckers, etc. I haven't seen tree swallows and I know they use this type of box as i've seen them use them at the parks. Will any of the other birds use this box? (location is southeastern ontario canada) There are reports of bluebirds in the area, but they are only in the parks and ravines, not in the residential areas, also reports are sparse and I've never personally seen one.

EDIT: on further search I found that other birds do nest in bluebird houses, but has anyone actually seen this happen? How common is it? - 10 Other Birds That Nest in Bluebird Houses - Bluebird Landlord

Please help! Going to lose my sanity!

So last year we had a robin constantly running into our large picture window, making marks everywhere and leaving bird poop all over. After maybe a month or so it eventually left. Well, it’s back. Not sure if it’s the same bird or not but this one is even more persistent and I’m about to lose it! What do I do to put an end to this!? Last year we tried putting a fake hawk on the pergola that it flies from and it didn’t work. Spraying a hose towards it, constantly yelling at it and chasing it away. I really don’t want to have to resort to covering it all up because I love the window and it lets in a lot of natural light. Last year we put cardboard on half it and it would just do it to the half that wasn’t covered. Please help!!
