    The Return of the Red-Winged Blackbirds

    They have arrived.

    In the coming weeks, promise I won't post as many RWBB images as I did last year

    A few more than the 2 I saw yesterday. I did see a few robins, but then I saw some all winter too.

    Nice shot shot with so many in the pic.

    That is a huge flock, it's really a great shot how they are shown against the sky.

    I heard a few today but couldn't spot them. There's still too much winter left for them up here. I think they are staying in the tropical south (Ohio) for a little bit longer before crossing the ponds and heading north
