Here is the female with the throat wound. The sun is still too low to get a good clear shot. What ever the cause, it appears (on my screen) that she suffered a break in the skin and not just a loss of feathers in that area. I can see some scabbing in some of the closeups. The other birds do seem to pick on her, so I wonder if the injury was caused by an attack by another bird.
