Black Drongos must be breeding here – this juvenile was terrorizing his parents with constant calls for food.

They are fiercely territorial on breeding territory, but in migration they often gather in rather large numbers. Eastern Kingbirds breed across the eastern United States and much of southern Canada. Eastern Kingbirds can pull off amazing aerial maneuvers but can also look very inefficient in flight.

a baby bird of indeterminate species hatches while his mother is away from the nest. Flying from kitten to hen to dog to cow to car to boat to steam shovel, the baby bird asks the timeless question, “Are you my mother?” I have decided that the bird is an Alpine Chough, a red-billed blackbird that breeds in the Swiss Alps.
