Field Notes

Description:

The iridescence of these long lanky birds really shows out against the snow. There was a flock walking around my yard. Good thing they have strong beaks because they were having to peck through ice. I think they usually have a more bronzy look but these were iridescent blue black all over.

Habitat:

urban home
