Fledgling

[dalethorn]

This bird was stumbling around in a parking lot about to get run over, until the mother came by and directed it home. I got a glance at the mother and it looked like a grackle. Not a small bird - body about 5 to 6 in. long.

The technical problem here was the sun directly on the beak.
