A Busy New YearWe ended 2020 and started 2021 with Pine Grosbeaks in rehab. It is not uncommon to see these colorful birds get injured in the winter, but this year we had 4 at one time, a bit of a rush for our normally mellow season. Three of these birds flew into windows, and the fourth was injured by a Northern Shrike, an unusual passerine in that it hunts other birds.
