February was full of Grackles.
Hundreds perched on bare tree limbs like raucous leaves.
Others scattered seeds of backyard feeders or splashed in Little Crum Creek.
Suddenly for a spell, few of winter’s usual birds were seen or heard amid the mobbing throng & din.
But a few, notorious for aggressively flocking with their respective species, found themselves almost indistinguishably at home when mingling with the Grackles.
More about them on Wednesday & Thursday.
For now, you might spot a Red-winged Blackbird bathing in the stream, flashing its orange & scarlet epaulettes in flight (at about 0:30).
