Red Winged Blackbirds, Vultures

Back on this date. 

I only heard one blackbird; our local flock continues very diminished. However, I saw a single vulture soaring over the back yard, and later, a flock of 6 to 8 of them over another local woodlot. 

They all came up on that wave of wildly warm weather we had for a couple of days (24°C in Windsor! and warm here too) and I guess they won't be too happy for the rest of this week. It got down to -5°C overnight; quite a change.
