This morning I spied a long-tailed black bird fly over the road, which
after a quick u-turn, turned out to be a Great-Tailed Grackle! It is near
Rickreal, on the north end of Morrow Rd. The bird is hanging out at a
group of farm buildings (a dairy?). It is moving around some, but calling
frequently, so it shouldn't be too hard to find. At least a couple people
working at the farm now know the rare bird is there, but please respect
their private property. The grackle did come out to the road and was
frequently visible from the road. Doug Robinson was nearby and was also
able to see it and get pictures.

Good birding!
