Baby grackles



The birds nest under the Westside Highway, so at this time of year one sees lots of fledgling starlings and grackles out on the lawn between the highway and the river. The grackles are big, demanding babies. I've seen them sitting helpless in the grass and waiting in the bushes for a food delivery. They're not as raucous as the baby starlings who "yell" non-stop.
