Horned Grebe at the Celery Farm
My first ever here. And the spring arrivals are arriving! The grebe was No. 186 on my Celery Farm life…
The aggressive Red-winged Blackbird protecting a nest in the field by Phairs Pond has calmed down, and I don't think he will harass anyone.
I took down the caution tape.
That said, another male Red-winged Blackbird might scold you as you walk down the Green Way Path…
I've read that Red-winged Blackbirds will only strafe from behind you… In case it ever comes up on Jeopardy.
