Shane, that appears to be a grackle to me. I have a lot nesting in my Halifax
neighborhood as well. Along the same lines, as I was walking the block
yesterday evening I noticed my neighbor holding something....a baby bluejay.
She was going to put in a shoe box and keep it away from the
cats.......grimace! I didn't say anything because its too late, but I have been
taught its best not to handle baby birds and contaminate with human scent. Not
so much that the parents would reject them, but the predators would follow the
human scent out of curiosity.
Anybody have any thoughts on this one?
