Re: [SBB] Great-tailed Grackle at Baylands

[Nancy Teater <[[email protected]]>]

Hi,
Ted Chandik's Fly By Dawn group saw a grackle in the same location last 
year on April 24. At the time, Bill Bousman said a grackle had been seen 
near the Duck Pond during one or two previous years. I'm told they're 
expanding their range from So Cal.
