  1. Excellent shot, David! Posted 5 years ago
    1. Thanks, Rio Concho & Lake Maracaibo are wonderful - Let's hope that Venezuela can get back on an even keel (not likely with Trump in the White House, unfortunately) Posted 5 years ago
      1. Truly hope so. We were close to the border (from Colombia) and saw quite a few refugees from Venezuela. Posted 5 years ago
        1. We also saw them coming from Los Llanos - very, very sad Posted 5 years ago

The Yellow-headed Blackbird is a medium-sized blackbird, and the only member of the genus "Xanthocephalus". This bird's song resembles the grating of a rusty hinge.
