[Image ID: Two close up photos of two birds on a dogwood tree branch. The bird on the left is a juvenile cowbird, which is a greyish brown colour. The bird on the right is an adult male northern cardinal, which has a red coloured body with a black circle around the eyes and beak. Both photos have a white, translucent watermark in the bottom left corner, which reads ‘xrinsu 2022′. In the first photo, the northern cardinal is stretched left toward the juvenile cowbird, and has his beak in the cowbirds open beak. In the second photo, the juvenile cowbird still has their beak open and looking toward the cardinal; the cardinal is standing upright and is looking upwards, over the cowbird. End ID]
