FINALLY got out to take a walk in the woods again...got out of shape over the winter & needed to work my way back up to it.
Anyway, today's pictures (I'll post some later) are a bit abstract & mostly about capturing the shapes & color contrasts of spring. But I did catch this guy right before he flew off. I assumed it was a crow until I just looked at the picture. My first thought when I did (sorry-he's a little fuzzy from cropping) was grackle. But I would think the bill should be-not thin, but thinner. Unless it's just the angle-he was up pretty high & far away.
Any thoughts?
This is the full picture for perspective.
