Our latest Spring storm (17 inches of snow on Saturday) brought a visit from the first yellow-headed blackbird I've seen at our house. This fellow was the only member of his species in a large mixed flock of red-winged blackbirds and great-tailed grackles.
It was interesting to note how aggressive he was: he resolutely refused to yield position to any blackbirds and only occasionally to the much larger grackles.
He's angry because he merged in with the wrong flock on his morning commute...
