Holy poo poo yes.
Here are my two favorite birds:

1. Red-winged Blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus)

These dudes live all over North America, so chances are that you've seen one (assuming you're an NA goon, like me). Their cry is pretty distinctive but not that pretty, sadly. This was my favorite bird of all time until I got more experience with #2


I just moved to the country and we have tons of these around our property. One side is a natural wetland and that must be prime Red winged Blackbird habitat.

Something interesting that I've noticed is that their yellow stripe is not visible in the winter. Weird.

Always been a fan of the Kingfisher.



Great Unreal Tournament players, perfected the triple kill. :black101:



I love Kingfishers. Here at work we have 4 large ponds surrounding the building and they happily thin out the bluegill population.

And they hit the building sometimes :(


I've also noticed in the last week we've had 3 or 4 Eastern Bluebirds show up. I plan on making a bunch of birdhouses this summer.
