This probably sounds ridiculous to everybody else, but I just now have a very
rare sighting in my back yard: a pair of Brewer's Blackbirds. During my
childhood, there was a sizeable colony of them here on the farm in Lincoln
County, but it disappeared about 1959. Since then the species has been very
rare at this location. I think this is the first time I have seen a pair of
them in close to fifty years, maybe longer.
