Great-tailed Grackle Quiscalus mexicanus

12/31/2025 Los Angeles County, California

A flock of mostly grackles I think, although there could be other blackbirds in it, in mid-July a few years ago. They flew so close I could hear their wings and almost feel the air. It gave me goosebumps. I had never seen anything but starlings fly in a group like this.

Unicorns of legend are often said to be only found in ancient and mysterious forests, so lovers of myth may be disappointed to find unicorns living in more mundane surroundings. But unicorns are quick to prove that the crackling call of grackles, the lacy shadows and honey scent of mesquite trees - dry grasses undulating with a distant breeze – they can be just as magical as ferny, clover-scented woods any day.
