Observation details
First county record!!! Totally unexpected. Scoping from the end and Andrew saw a blackbird fly by with a long wedge tail and heard a harsh “chek” call. Chased it N along the road until we could relocate it and get pictures. Bronze body, glossy black head, and yellow eye. In flight it stood out from the nearby blackbirds because of the large tail. GT grackle ruled out by the field marks above. Tail also too small for GTGR. Pictures to come.
