Red-Winged Blackbirds, Agelaius Phoeniceus


Day 167 (part A): The purpose of the stop at my favorite duck pond this morning was to see if the Red-Winged Blackbirds were about. Oh, my! They certainly were, and in numbers. I saw only one female and was unable to get a shot of her, so I returned later in the day to try again. This time, there were only a few birds in the area, but one of them was the female shown on the left.

That said, there were a few other folk visiting the pond: a Great Blue Heron (possibly the same bird whose portrait I've made previously) and another good friend who stole the show. Today, 365 Caws has a bonus edition, and for "good caws." Stay tuned!
