I’ve been seeing a flock of blackbirds for about a week and a half now. I think mostly starlings and about 2 to 3 dozen at a time.

And skunks!

As if someone had told them the calendar had turned to March, I looked out my window just now to see a mixed flock of at least 150 blackbirds at my feeding stations near Phelps, NY. About 2/3 grackles and 1/3 redwings. Mostly male with a few female redwings in the mix. A sight to see for sure!
