Re: [cobirds] Re: Yellow Grosbeak possible injury (Huerfano Co)

From a forensic perspective I took pictures off the bird at 12:19 PM today (I cross-checked my camera's clock to be sure this time is exactly correct) and there was no evidence of this blood (?)  at that time. I cannot tell what time Carolyn's pictures were actually taken at based on the .jpg info I can see in her posted shots, we only know when she posted them. So something happened early this afternoon.

I was there today at around 3:00pm, and took pictures of the neck and leg specifically. We thought at first that the stuff on the neck was jelly that had been knocked down to the ground earlier. However, the area around its leg does not appear to be the jelly. It did appear at times that it was favoring that leg. We all hoped that maybe it was the jelly, and it was very sticky, and bothering the bird. The owners said they would keep a close watch. 

Sorry, my photos aren't ready yet.

Carolyn Spidle posted photos from today at ~1:30 that show what appears to be blood around the Yellow Grosbeak's right leg. Can anyone confirm this is an injury? Thanks.

The Yellow Grosbeak continues to be seen today in Huerfano County, with many birders seeing it.  Viewing is open until 7pm today.

Tomorrow, viewing will be open from NOON to 7pm.  Don't plan to come before then.  If anything changes, we'll let you know.
