Only in NW Ontario?

Yellow-headed Blackbirds on the north shore

Many thanks to James Barber for sharing this terrific shot of a male Yellow-headed Blackbird that was in the company Brewer’s Blackbirds at John St Rd & Townline, Thunder Bay on May 2nd and 3rd.

Another Yellow-headed Blackbird was photographed by Nolan Pelland here in Marathon one week ago. Reportedly it didn't stick around for long.

On May 24, 2009, a male Yellow-headed Blackbird was observed at Otter Cove, in Pukaskwa National Park. The bird adeptly captured water striders along the shore of Lake Superior, on a few metres from observers.
