Grackles upstairs, red-winged blackbirds downstairs |

Now, this is not to say that I have remained indoors. No, not me. Here are shots of my flying friends. The birds (right) were sitting eating the deer feed!
We had one night where the temperature rose to something like +15 C., and me and my buddy, Oliver, went outdoors. We heard something out there. I figured it was a bird, the way he was chasing it. The sound was amazing.
It was brown, about the size of a robin, and made the silliest sound. I tried to videotape the bird, but couldn't get an image, only the sound. Today's Camera Critters post has to be photos of critters I have captured.
Not flying but bird watching, and sharpening claws! |

I can't identify the bird but it has a unique sound that a more knowing birder will recognize.
I love the Grackles in the sunlight but they can eat me out of birdseed in a days time. :)
What a cute little helicopter.

Sweet bird pics! Can't help you with the mystery bird though.
Quite a lot of birds at the feeder Jenn,nice!
Lovely!
My Critters, have a good weekend.
Hello Jen.
I listened but have no idea!!
Wow that is unusual.....we have a bird song identifier and so I'll play it and see if it's there....Nope Sorry it wasn't, Good Luck!!!!!
So cute!
Here's my entry, have a great weekend!
No help here either. Another site I like for birds is Cornell's http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/search - Margy
I'm sorry I can't indentify your bird, either. It has a very distinctive call, so I hope someone recognises it as I'm now quite curious myself. The birds are always so wonderful to watch - I can lose hours just observing them flitting about - it's so uplifting.
Looks to be a good year for birds. Nice pics.
I can't help identify the mystery bird. I only started trying to photograph them last summer, and although I have been listening to birds sing most of my life, I still can't match a sound to the bird. I'm learning though. Loved your post!
How frustrating to try to identify a bird. I have tons of experience of NOT being able to identify various one, unfortunately. I am such a BEGINNER!
