Adults have black beaks. I love watching that whole "feed me" routine. (We did have adult female goldfinches at our thistle feeder, doing that same thing with the males feeding them. I never knew about that courtship ritual until I saw it this year.)Ingridhttp://www.thefreequark.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4981504059496394294.post-76528572773255064272009-07-10T20:36:17.798-07:002009-07-10T20:36:17.798-07:00Beautiful images and amazing variety!

(I think there are a couple of photos in a May post). I wonder about the grackle - not much tail for a great-tailed - perhaps molting, or a young?

Calling it a pond is very generous, but there are a lot of other predators. There are a ton of feral cats and lots of raccoons. The neighbor lady said the raccoon she saw had a duckling in each paw. :(Renehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16947857032497037236noreply@blogger.com
