Name that bird 2

Filed in Daily Photo
UFO 2

And here’s another bird I don’t know the name of. I know this: it looks like a British blackbird, but it’s smaller and more delicate, like a starling. It seems to have a ring around its eye, though you’d be hard-pressed to tell that from the photograph. They hang out around picnic areas and fast food joints.

    Brewer’s Blackbirds have very pale eyes:

    They’re often in mixed flocks with a few Red-winged Blackbirds, in parking lots.

    Squee!

    Yes, that’s the critter.

    So it IS a blackbird. Awesome :)
