A Lesson to Learn From Birds

This image features an adult male American robin and a young house sparrow, whose gender is probably female (too young to tell for sure as full features are not developed). They are perched on a concrete bird bath that is on the floor of my garden.  Only the rim of the birdbath and water inside of it is visible in this image. Both birds are on the right side of the image. The robin is in front of the sparrow and appears to be taking a drink as his yellow bill is reaching into the water. The little sparrow is behind him and only the bill and top portion of the head are visible.  Foliage (that is in yellowish and pale green tones ) from a Heuchera plant is behind the birds. Both these bird types are featured in my book series."Words In Our Beak." Info re the book is on my blog @ https://www.thelastleafgardener.com/2018/10/one-sheet-book-series-info.html

This image features an adult male American robin and a young house sparrow, whose gender is probably female (too young to tell for sure as full features are not developed). They are perched on a concrete bird bath that is on the floor of my garden. Only the rim of the birdbath and water inside of it is visible in this image. Both birds are on the right side of the image. The robin is is the furthest of the two birds to the right and he is gazing up (intently) at something (but I have no idea what ha captured his attention). The sparrow is only a few inches away from him and this little creature also seems to be looking at the same thing that caught the robin’s attention. Foliage (that is in yellowish and pale green tones ) from a Heuchera plant is behind the birds. Both these bird types are featured in my book series, “Words In Our Beak."

THESE BIRD TYPES ARE FEATURED IN WIOB

I had two non-social distancing birds (a House sparrow and an American robin) stop by my garden the other day which surprised me as I have always heard these types of birds did not get along, so I did some research posing the question, "Do robins and sparrows get along?"

Here is what I found out: from a variety of sources. Despite their differences, sparrows and robins manage to get along pretty well. They can hang out in the same tree, they can even sit on the same branch, but the unwritten rule is to stay out of each others nest.

Not a bad thing for us humans to do during these tumultuous times of the cornavirus pandmeic and unrest due to issues associated with our 2020 preidential election in the United States.

On anothern note, dear reader, both of these bird types are featured in my three volume book series, Words In Our Beak.
