[CT Birds] More Redwings and Grackles

[Dana Campbell]

I have had huge flocks of Red-winged Blackbirds and Common Grackles in my neighborhood (East Hartford) since Tuesday.  They come around several hundred at a time, and may not be the same birds every day.  This morning after I spread some seed around the feeders on the ground, they hurtled down out of the trees and blanketed my yard.  It was quite a sight.  Something--perhaps my local Sharpie--spooked them, and they were gone in a flash.  Indeed a portent of Spring!
