Yellowheads

When a flock of Yellow-headed Blackbirds descended on our farm yesterday, I was happy to spend some quality time watching and photographing them. These flocks are interesting in that they are completely segregated. This flock was made up entirely of males, but in a few weeks the males will be gone and the flocks will be composed only of females.

The males migrate first in order to stake out the best breeding territories before the females arrive.

What have we here?

 The windmill seemed to be the perch of choice.
