Lovely shots of the grackles, A.G.@agmoore. There are a couple grackles that make a nest in the emerald cedar trees in my front yard. They come back every spring, have their babies and stay around but only the two adults come back each spring and start the cycle over again. A pretty bird with shiny bluish head feathers and devilish looking yellow eye. 😆. Although they like to rule, my blue jays and doves stand their ground against them when eating the seeds and cat food I throw out for them.
Sounds like you and Hubby are enjoying the nice weather. We are getting there with warmer temps but today looks overcast.
