Yellow bullies yellow

 

A Western Tanager was sitting atop a tree, a perch that allows it to glean insects.

Elsewhere on the tree was a Cedar Waxwing, a slightly heavier bird.

The tanager looked down and saw the waxwing coming after it.
“Hey, I know waxwings don’t eat other birds, and I thought that you aren’t even territorial—so, what the…?”

“Oh well, I’m out of here.”
