I went for a walk in LaHave tonight.  What started out as pretty boring on =
the basis of birds.  I mean we are talking about almost total silence=2C tu=
rned into a little bit of excitement.  I started off with hearing a gray ca=
tbird  and then saw it.  After that I heard some common grackles and when I=
 looked up there was an eastern kingbird with them.  They all landed.  I tr=
ied to get photos of the eastern kingbird and was surprised to see a second=
 eastern kingbird.  After that the grackles flew and I noted a blackbird wi=
th them.  Not a red-winged blackbird.  I never did get a positive ID on tha=
t one.  A second smaller blackbird was also present.  Maybe a cowbird.  All=
 in flight.  I then noticed a swallow flying along with them of which I was=
 unable to ID the swallow due to lighting. =20
