The Common Grackle
The Common Grackle, doesn’t appear to be so common. They are like a beauty in disguise. Most days they look like your average black bird. As if they were created to make one stop and really look at this bird, to not just take them for granted. Wait for the sun to come out, when the Light shines on this plain bird, amazing things will happen before your very eyes. It is like seeing a rainbow for a few seconds and then it is gone.
Have a Wonderful Weekend

They are like a natural hologram! That is like when Starlings get in a certain light too. I don’t see Grackles here, but there are Starlings a’plenty.
Yes, both birds are a burst of color in the right light.
They were beautiful – their colors are like the teal head of the Mallards – iridescent when the sun hits them the right way.
“Wait for the sun to come out, when the Light shines on this plain bird, amazing things will happen before your very eyes.” Oh this is so true for us as well when we choose to walk in the Lord’s Light. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!
Yes Beth, that is what I was thinking. When His light shines on us, amazing things will happen. It is a beautiful day today Beth, we are outside enjoying the warm weather. A wonderful weekend to you as well.
