Road Scenes - BLACKBIRDS by the thousands




Last evening as I drove home from Kipling, SK I decided to be adventerous and drive the so-called road/highway #47 . Halfway between Glenavon and Grenfell I encountered huge flocks of blackbirds swarming around a slough by the side of the road.
These photos I took do not do justice to the impressive flock which was comprised of redwing, yellowhead and common blackbirds. And the noise they created was incredible. It is another sign that fall is just around the corner.
