Yesterday, we went looking for the Red Headed Woodpecker that we had seen during the winter...(see post). Reports had it beginning to molt from the juvenile brown/gray to its striking red head. But no luck...and it was cold.We did however, find a massive flock of blackbirds moving throughout the wooded area of the park. There were also reports of Rusy Blackbirds in the area, so we looked. Female Grackles kept confusing us, but we met a photographer who gave us hints....look on the ground in the undergrowth. Within minutes, we had several.
Very strange photo of these birds. They were in various stages of rust from a brown to an almost perfect black.
