Grackles/ Camera Critters

Ever feel like you're part of an Alfred Hitchcock movie? Recently a flock of grackles touched down for a few minutes and then...

flew away. I just barely had time to grab my camera.

Yep, I have that feeling in the fall when I see these huge flocks of birds. You did a good job capturing the feeling.

Great photos. Looks like "The Birds" movie all right!

Aren't these the same birds that Knoxville Girl did a photo on a while back? Definately reminds me of The Birds, a classic!

Grackles. One of my favorite birds. Not because they squawk but because they are such excellent parents. Lovely to see a flock this large.

Marvellous capture. These look like or crows or jackdaws.

Wonderful grackle capture--both photos are keepers! They're one of my faves and I love it when they come back this time of year to fill up before flying south.
Nice work!
