More pictures from the Grackle adventure (see below.) You can clearly see their iridescent helmets in this one. The white spots are suet that they threw on the window in all the commotion. Yesterday morning a single sandhill crane flew over, sounding its warbling bugle-call. It is thrilling to see a crane in the air.
A couple of different young cardinals and two young Rose-breasted Grosbeaks fequent the feeder now. I feel quite extraordinarily pleased with the breeding success of all our feeder birds this year.
