Since it was the first day of spring I decided to take a tour of the
new fauna and wildlife. Red-winged blackbirds are everywhere
and goldeneyes-- the winter ducks-- are nowhere to be seen,
which is pretty surprising seeing as a week ago there would
be a few goldeneyes floating around at every part of the Lagoon
and no trace of any blackbirds. Spring came pretty abruptly.
I've had past experiences of fleeing from attacking red-winged
blackbirds, but they're not too aggressive as long as you keep a distance.

Very nice photo of the red wing black bird. Sometimes they are hard to get close to especially if they are protecting a nest.
