Rusty Blackbird in St. Louis County
2014-09-27

Common in St. Louis County in the Fall season

One of about a dozen Rusty Blackbirds in various plumages in a weedy field along Grand Avenue in western Duluth. Of special note is that the blackbirds were "flycatching" for insects on this unseasonably warm afternoon.
