The Red-fan Parrot puts its signature plumage to use in a few ways. When threatened, it can fan out its neck feathers to seem larger. During courtship, males & females raise their feathers to attract mates, displaying in pairs swaying their heads from side to side.

The Red-fan Parrot (Deroptyus accipitrinus) puts its signature plumage to use in a few ways. When threatened, it’ll fan out its vibrant neck feathers to intimidate a foe by making itself seem larger in size. Feathers are also used in courtship rituals, when they’re raised up as come-hither collars by males and females in a display as a pair will sway their heads from side to side. Spot this bird in tropical forests throughout parts of South America, including Colombia and Peru.

A long-tailed tit, a small, predominantly white, round-bodied bird with slightly pinkish underparts, black, white and pinkish back, black wings, black eyebrows, orange eyelids, a minute stubby beak, and a very long black tail, looks straight perched on a slanted thin branch against a messy, mostly green background.

Debra Lynn Copeland posts to Backyard Bird Lovers on Facebook: I’ve had robins on my porch every year. This year has been quite interesting! On Sunday I found two eggs in the nest and by Tuesday afternoon there were 8 eggs! I had never seen that many. So I did a little bit of research and found out that 8 eggs means they were likely laid by two different females. So I set up a camera to see what would happen. And much to my surprise there are two females caring for the eggs. They are NOT happy to be sharing the nest. But they are stubborn and neither mother is willing to leave her eggs. I read that usually the robins are so territorial that one mother will leave. During the day they kick each other out of the nest taking turns sitting on the eggs. Then at night they both have such a strong instinct to sit on the eggs all night that they BOTH sit on the nest. One bird sits on the other. They fight and peck at each other constantly! Although they seem to have come to some sort of understanding and tolerate each other much better now. Here are some pictures and videos of these very stubborn and devoted mother robins. I can tell them apart by their markings by their eyes. And I can tell they are both females by the way the mothers settle onto the eggs and cover them with their brood patch. Have you ever seen two females sit on the nest at the same time!? St Thomas, Ontario Canada May 4, 2025
A bird's nest with eight sky blue robin's eggs in it.
One female robin sits upon the other in the same nest.
In black-and-white (photographed at night), the female robins sit next to each other on the same nest, their beaks pointing at each other. Their eggs are visible in the nest below them.
In black-and-white (photographed at night), one female robin sits upon the other in the same nest.
The female robins sit next to each other in the same next, although one is partially sitting on the other.
The male robin (perhaps the baby daddy of both females) has come to visit the next. The females, partially stacked atop each other, stare back at him.

And they were roommates...
