My favorite Fall color is black



For me the true harbingers of Autumn are all grackles. Huge, energetic black birds flock into live oak trees. Riotous song--elven laughter--endless hordes in some avian Valhalla. Every bird's name ends with -son or -dottir. Wellspring of the joy of living. Alive in song.

Bless you! I'm rather fond of grackles, I thought I was the only one.

Grackles are such fun! I can never decide if I like boat-tail ones better or great tail ones better.
