Red-winged Blackbird

I freely acknowledge this is a poor photo but it is good enough to confirm we are looking at a Red-winged Blackbird.

This bird has been hanging around the bird feeder for the last three days and is about four months too early. It seems healthy enough but it must have been driven North by the last strong South wind.

It could be an argument in favor of Global Warming or it had a malfunction in it's GPS.

We will see how it does when the mercury plunges into double digit below zero numbers.
