Friday, March 21, Alcoa Greenway, Blount County, TN, in a fenced in field
behind U.S. Foods I saw what I am almost certain was a Rusty Blackbird. Its
head and mantle were a rich shade of brown, its eyes were pale and it was
smaller than the nearby American Robins. I have posted 2 photographs of it to
my Flickr site. If you enlarge the photos in the viewer you can clearly see
the rusty edging to its wing feathers. Still, since this only the second time
I've seen a Rusty Blackbird, I'd appreciate it if someone could take a look at
these and let me know what you think.
Thanks.
