Blackbird fly...


Blackbirds sitting on the left and right
Take these suet cakes up to the tree
all your life
you were only waiting for this moment to eat seed

(with apologies to Paul McCartney)


Common Grackles, Red-winged Blackbirds, and Brown-headed Cowbirds in Colonie


At the Thacher Park hawkwatch site, one adult Bald Eagle migrated along the ridgeline, with two migrating Turkey Vultures, three resident TVs, and a Red-tailed Hawk.

At Black Creek Marsh, a red morph Eastern Screech-Owl was in one of the Wood Duck boxes. The water is mostly frozen thanks to recent cold nights.
