A Common Grackle

Close up, he doesn't look common at all... look at those beautiful colors. You can't see them all the time, just in certain light. From most angles and in most lighting, this bird looks all black. This reminded me to remember to look closely for the the bright spots, whatever the situation. Everything here is going pretty well and I hope the same for you. You never know what will arise on any given day. Perhaps it's best to try to go with the flow & concentrate on what's good if you can. (another reminder for me!)
