I've had a couple of blue-winged warblers in the yard for several days.
This morning I noticed one was chasing a titmouse. This afternoon there
were two of the them chasing the titmice. Both times the titmice had been
at the feeder with sunflower chips. The chickadees and the Carolina wrens
were also raising a fuss. I never would have thought the blue-winged would
be so aggressive! I have yet to see them go to the feeders. I'm wondering,
why are they chasing the titmice?
