Avian Combat on a June Porch Between Catbird and Grosbeak
A dawn garden scene records a tame battlefield as a rose breasted grosbeak fights a slate colored catbird for peanut butter on a porch rail. The author notes camera constraints, a delayed photo, and observes the birds' plumage, song, and behavioral contrast. The piece closes with reflections on nature, beauty, and a broader analogy to human struggle.
