GARDENING and BIRD WATCHING

The Common Grackle or Starling

Been gardening all week as it is the season . . .before its  far to HOT!!
Watching the grackles feeding their young and recently came across a beautifully illustrated  book called ''BIRDS'' reminded me of the little bird sculptures in the garden on iled'Orléans  in an earlier post  . . .they are not just black birds . . .if hooking  . . .black can be any colour almost as long as the value is dark . . .
