Quite the fray this morning, two #venezuelantroupials guarded the palm trees against the #grackles

After a scuffle, 12 #dove #feathers floated down.

In my car at HEB (a TX supermarket chain) waiting for curbside pickup and in the row of empty racks were several of these great-tailed #grackles - (AKA by me PLBs, Parking Lot Birds) serenading me with their unique raucous cacophony.

Scores of Common Grackles crowd a snow-covered deck during snowfall - more in the left background tree wait their turn. Snowy evergreen trees and yard in the background.

Like living music
notes upon the evening
sky - the blackbirds leave

to wherever it is they
go to dream their nightly dreams

SKETCHBOOK 12 โ€“ MOREย BIRDS Encouraged by your encouragement, I did a few more birds, including a pair of Cardinals. They aren't as fat this year, probably because they have to compete with a giant flock of starving Grackles. I don't know if the Grackles are really starving, but they act like they haven't eaten in years. They act like that while they are eating, so I think that, like the Duke, they are permanently ready for a good feed.

LAST TWO ON THEย CARDS Last on the Card โ€“ January 2022 I think we -- as a family -- took more pictures during the past three or four days than we took the entire rest of the month. The huge blizzard that hit us geared everyone up, and since Owen had the perfect camera -- an Olympus Tough TG-6ย -- ready to go out into the snow and ice?

Tried some new ways of editing to help bring out the colors on this great-tailed grackle.

Boat-tailed grackles foraging togetherโ€”glossy black bodies, striking yellow eyes, moving purposefully across the ground.

This #willet and boat-tailed (?) #grackles are my contribution.

Today, dozens of grackles line a seed and snow-covered deck railing and ground during active snowfall, with evergreen trees and bare branches in the background. More Grackles wait in the nearby trees.

I rarely get a nice pic of a Boat-Tailed Grackle but recently was watching Killdeer foraging on the bank of the lake when this BTG landed right in front of me. โค๏ธ

Two boat-tailed grackles (a male and a female) on the ground. The male with black plumage has a nut secured in his beak while the female with bronze plumage scans the area to her left.

Per Alan, todayโ€™s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #FoodFinds any bird with food in itโ€™s mouth and the alternative is #preening any bird preening.

I've selected a northern #mockingbird and boat-tailed #grackles from my collection for the main theme.
