"CAPED CRUSADER"

Grackle (Common) - 5 Photos

One of the best things of wildlife photography is that it gives one an opportunity to observe and have Nature show you the unexpected.

I was looking for the mysterious mink when in and out of the creek, these grackles kept flying, landing and leaving with what I thought were grubs or insects they had harvested out of the reeds.

Heck not! Took a quick shot as one emerged from the grasses and they were fishing in the creek for small Prussian Carp. So no matter how small you may think you are, you can always help with the balance of the environment and the health of our eco-system.

Oh and mink, better watch out, someone is raiding that fish bowl of yours and helping themselves to some "goldfish cracker" snacks!
