    This afternoon while riding around The Honors golf course, I stopped to 
take a good look at a large flock of Grackles and other blackbirds to see if 
there might be any some Brewer's in the group. I did not see any Brewer's but I 
did see a blackbird with a totally white tail. I saw another one with a 
partially white tail.
    I am sure this is not that uncommon (I think I have seen pictures posted of 
totally albino blackbirds) but it is the first time I have ever see a white 
tail on a blackbird.
