Seeing the picture of the Cardinal feeding the goldfish (because it apparently had lost its brood) set me thinking.
Is this a common practice?, birds carrying food around for young that have disappeared or died.
Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
I have seen Coots do this to up to 3 days after young disappeared.
