Great image Douglas. And it's great to see that berry action, I have seen hundreds in my Spokane home where we had about 7 mountain ash trees. We also got robins and Bohemian Waxwings at the same time. Some would get drunk from the barries and show bizarre behavior.

That's super cool Doug! Love the photo, and I appreciate the extra information about the bird too.

Thanks, Ben. I have seen Robins get drunk on Pyracantha berries in my neighbors yard. It is pretty funny to watch. The Robin police could make a fortune if they set up a DUI trap in the Palo Verde tree in my yard where they go to rest after eating the berries.
