Grackles!!!!!!!!!

Ok, I know we are mostly annoyed at all those loud, messy, ugly blackbirds that fill trees, sit on power lines, cover houses and fields, but today I actually had a different appreciation for them while sitting at the stoplight at legacy/eldorado. I had to sit there quite a while since it's a detour, and me and the kids watched these birds for several minutes. Thousands of them. It was amazing! When they all lift off at the same time, the kids get excited, and it brought a smile to my face too!!!!!! I did not personally take these pictures, but these are the birds I'm talking about.
