Also, shout-out to Rachel Carson. Bioaggregation is a real concern, yo.

I know right, obese songbirds are the worst.

Well, I have this big old tree in the back garden, which is pit stop for starlings. They fly from Ukraine, across Hungary and then they go to Adriatic see to Africa, every year they come almost on the same day, except when was a war in Ukraine, so I kind of knew that something is wrong before news. When they come in late morning, million of them sit on just that poor tree, a bird near the bird and it's amazing to watch because it's such energy. Then they fly away around 5PM the same day all together at once, whoosh, they take all air with them in the sky. :)
I keep this a kind of secret, it's in city and who knows who would want to disturb them, but I guess Voat is safe to tell how really beautiful is to have a nature like that around, it's a one of few things that is worth to fight for.

Used to have a wide variety of songbirds, but not anymore. These shiny black grackles have didplaced the ither birds. They work together to hassle any great Owl or Hawk in the area by taking turns destroying the hunt and tiring the large birds until they leave.
They let the songbirds come in the Spring, build nests, then they peck the eggs or drag the young from the nest and drop them on the pavement from altitude. this is a team effort, with sentries posted on tall trees to warn the flock.
Adult common grackles measure from 28 to 34 cm (11 to 13 in) in length, span 36–46 cm (14–18 in) across the wings, and weigh 74–142 g (2.6–5.0 oz).[6] Common grackles are less sexually dimorphic than larger grackle species, but the differences between the sexes can still be noticeable. The male, which averages 122 g (4.3 oz), is larger than the female, at an average of 94 g (3.3 oz).[7] Adults have a long, dark bill, pale yellowish eyes, and a long tail; their feathers appear black with purple, green, or blue iridescence on the head, and primarily bronze sheen in the body plumage. Adult females, beyond being smaller, are usually less iridescent; their tails in particular are shorter, and unlike the males, do not keel (display a longitudinal ridge) in flight and are brown with no purple or blue gloss. Juveniles are brown with dark brown eyes.
