Eastern Phoebe nest & eggs, including cowbird egg.
Are you going to remove the Cowbird egg?
Michelle, removing the cowbird egg is not advised. Technically, they are protected species just like the phoebe.
Thanks, I realized that after I posted. I know starlings and house sparrows are invasive and momentarily forgot that even though cowbirds have annoying, pest-like behavior, that they are not considered such.
