AKA a blackbird. This particular one has been having a field day, literally, in our back yard every since I mowed the lawn. He's been hopping here and there all day, cocking his head to one side and snatching up tasty little somethings. The lawn had gotten a bit out of control, perhaps I exposed a bunch of yummy creepy crawly things.
glad to hear you made it to NZ!
when can we come and visit? it's going to be damn cold soon in chicago. :)
Thanks! Visiting hours have begun. Come on over! It's almost warm enough to swim in the ocean now.
