Grackles and rain
are a fantastic combo that makes a murky day worth the while. The textures and colors that the water causes make them look even more elegant and impressive than usual. For some reason, I am also very fond of them looking down. So here is a selection of “Downward Gracks”.
More rain also means
more photos of wet Blue Jays! I hope you are not getting sick of seeing these because I still love them dearly. They are just so nice to study the patterns and structure of the plumage. And I just love the long faces too. I am still lagging a bit behind with processing photos but I am catching up, so there will be more possibly tonight or in the morning.
