There Must Be Magic

Here's Looking At You, Kid!

I love the distinctive cry of this bird, as it echoes over the marsh. And those stunning red and yellow epaulets are glorious! Meet the red-winged blackbird, Agelaius phoeniceus. I took this photo at Soaring Eagle Wetland on Friday afternoon. This bird - a male - favored me with its presence long enough for me to get about a dozen decent shots. I liked this one, in which he seemed to be looking right at me!

Our soundtrack song is Bertie Higgins, with Key Largo. (Want to get your heart broken? Read the first comment.) And the title line itself, of course, is from the marvelous film Casablanca.
