I just had a good 100 Grackles and Red-winged Blackbirds in my Newfield back yard. They flew up into nearby trees after decimating the feeders. Then came a Red-tailed Hawk to perch in one of the trees, and then came 6 Crows to mob the hawk.
It's really starting to sound like spring with all that noisy activity. The resident Ravens are becoming more active these days as well.
