Las Vegas Birds

Our caddy today is the State Bird of Arizona, the Cactus Wren.


This is a Great-tailed Grackle. Sure is, isn't it?

Great-Tailed Grackle? Nice alliteration/assonance! And a very nice tail...

The wren suffers a little in the glamour stakes, by comparison :)

Looks like the little fellow was either driving or keeping score for you!

If I hadn't been nearly comatose due to lack of sleep last night, this post would have been titled, "Cactus Wren Take The Wheel."

The birds recognize a friend.

Well, I'm glad you found some - I was thinking Las V was a concrete and neon desert!

Bet he makes a noise like "Grrrrrackle" !!
