Narcissistic spotted towhees

bird behavior, spotted towhee

There are two spotted towhees that seem to have fallen in love with their own reflection on our cars. Sort of like Narcissus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissus_%28mythology%29). My guess is it’s near nesting season and they think the reflection is either a potential mate or rival. They do this behavior all day. Taken in our Prescott driveway.
