Some of our local birds are starting to think about carving out breeding territories for themselves for the spring. This may involve harassing others of their own species until they command their own piece of turf.

Today at Laurel Creek someone was banging on our window. When I went to see who it was, I found a crow pecking and beating his wings on our window. I assume he saw a rival of equal size and ability reflected back at him. He’ll have to wait until dark before this trespasser disappears.
