Sometimes you just have to have a bath … with 1,000’s of your best friends. Such was the case when huge flocks of blackbirds returned to their favorite puddle. The blackbirds seemed to primarily bathe by species, and when it was the Yellow-Headed Blackbirds turn, they attacked this puddle with a vengeance! Amazingly about 30 minutes earlier there was not a single bird in sight near this puddle. Go figure?

I assume the huge flocks are because the northward migration should start real soon.
