Both times I stood under this tree it was full of song birds. My research tells me they were Common Blackbirds.
the only black birds i have seen and know are BIG and LOUD and CAW.
these were song birds. It says here they are song birds.
It was a whole flock.

Cell phones do not take photos of tiny black birds in a big tree.
I learned where all our Lizards have disappeared to. I saw one of these birds with a 3 inch lizard i his beak...

The birds eat the lizards? Which birds, the blackbirds or the crows? The tree is beautiful! Bird songs make the world happier.
The songs are pretty!!
No need to see the tree in bloom. We had them in abundance in Tucson. They're gorgeous. I would really enjoy this walk with you.
So, which would you rather have...the birds or the lizards? Those trees are beautiful in bloom.
Amazing how well wildlife is camouflaged and so very hard to see....well except for those annoying big loud black crows.
I'm sorry the lizard were on the lunch menu

I'm surprised that blackbirds eat lizards. I thought they were seed eaters...obviously I am wrong. I love the sound of song birds in the morning.
Love the Jacaranda color in bloom but oh my , they sure can stain the sidewalk with their petals.
I too get frustrated with the zoom capabilities of my cell. I have missed some humdingers.
I am going for a few hours to my eldercare commitment.
Dave will be alright for that amount of time.

Oh wow, great photos and I guess they will eat anything if they are hungry enough :)
