I faithfully refresh the birdbath under our oaks when I clean the chicken coop every morning. Lately, the birdbath has had all manner of weird stuff in it - shells from peanuts, turquoise-colored stones that look like they came from an aquarium. Today I found burger wrappers and plastic in it. Bizarre! I have seen the crows hanging out there so I suspect much of this stuff is coming from them. But worse, much worse, I found this:
It looks like the decapitated head of a nestling. A crow nestling? Why would they deposit their own in a bird bath?
Does anyone have a clue about this?
