Thanks for peeking in, everyone! This baby is even uglier in person. Parents are squawking the entire photo session
Yes, Alan - I think you have Starlings, too. They have many voices and are rather invasive. They have taken over the Gila Woodpecker's nests in my saguaro. Vicious, actually. Here, a Gila WP is building a new condo, hopefully for himself! That black stuff is like tar and is strewn about the driveway. Careful not to park a car under this cactus while the condo construction is going on...
