Here are the little chicks for sale at Farm & Fleet today. It was hard to photograph them inside the cages.
I came home and the sound of birds screeching... sounded like Alfred Hitchock's movie being filmed outside... This is only a portion of the flock of red wing blackbirds who were high up in the black walnut trees over the barn...
