I just saw a male Rusty Blackbird under my bird feeders just now -- 12: 26 pm.
He was alone.
He hopped up to the hook holding the feeders. Then flew off. There was also an
American Robin under the feeder at the same time.
I was so busy looking him up in the book I forgot about taking a photo!!
Arghhh. To small to be a grackle. Just a bit larger than a robin.
Yard bird for me. I'll keep a lookout to see if he returns.
