Hi --

We took the dogs for a walk (on lead!) in Northwest Branch Park and saw a
large mixed flock of blackbirds which seemed to contain quite a fair
proportion of Rusties in with the Red-wings. This is a favorite haunt of
Rusties in the early spring, as there are a number of vernal pools with
muddy edges. Also saw a pair of Wood Duck, and a few of the "usual suspects"
-- nice day out!
