Title: Black Ops: Operation Blackbird
Post by: Rotarran on February 07, 2013, 08:57:58 PM
So ever since I saw the Red-Winged Blackbird on the OSC live-cam, I wanted to see it and photograph it for myself.  So I studied its eating patterns and noticed that it visited the feeder about 2 times a day: @ around 10am and @ around 2pm.  

Most of this missions is classified but I want everyone to know that I was respectful to all involved.  I was a mere observer from afar.  

I don't know how rare it is to find a Blackbird in winter but it's the first one I've seen.  

Picture not the best but I was trying not to draw too much attention to myself:
