[cayugabirds-l] Red-winged Blackbirds

Hi all, As I was waiting for the bus at BTI, Veronique and I had two Red-winged Blackbirds fly overhead from northwest to southeast around 4.50 pm. Again another 15 minutes later I saw one more at the junction of Pine Tree road and Snyder Hill road. It was so nice to see them. Cheers

Walked over to Cornell Store at 9:55, and it was sitting on the ground by the back entrance (about 10-15 ft from door) eating berries. Flew off into willow by wee stinky glen - startled by a few people walking by and rattling the door loudly. -liisa Sent from my iPhone -- Cayugabirds-L List

A little after 9am today, Spring arrived. A single male REDWINGED BLACKBIRD. He was followed closely by a second and a few minutes later by 13 GRACKLES and a third Redwing. The great event was witnessed with trepidation by a dozen Bluejays and 20 Goldfinches. Of course, snow is in the forecast
