Diseased Bird: Junco with Broken Leg
I’ve been observing a Junco with a broken leg coming to my feeder everyday. Seems to be adjusted to having one leg. Lately the leg looks like it is about to fall off.

Any word if it got better, I have the same thing yet left foot.
I am curious if either of you know what happened to the junco that you saw with this condition in your yards?
I have one that visits a feeder in my yard with a similar left leg, although it seems more severe now with what appears to be white mold starting to grow on the foot. Just curious what might lie ahead for them.
