In reviewing some of my old bird pictures, I came across this one of a male Audubon's Warbler feeding a juvenile Cowbird. The picture was taken in Glen Canyon Park on July 23rd, 2012.

This is typical behaviour. Female Cowbirds lay their eggs in other birds nest, leaving all responsibility for incubation and rearing of the young Cowbirds to their foster parents.
