Dans le feuillage d’octobre, un éclat d’ombre irisée.
Le quiscale bronzé, discret alchimiste, mêle nuit et lumière sur son plumage.
Il ne chante pas — il écoute.
Camouflé dans la rouille dorée des feuilles,
il devient silence,
il devient saison.

Mystical Grackle

When we’re out walking, I’m always scanning for birds, especially species that aren’t common in the area. I spotted this blackbird as it settled beneath a distant pine tree. The challenge of photographing a bird from afar, especially while holding the camera off-hand, is that I’m never quite sure whether I’ve focused on the bird itself or its surroundings. In this case, it was likely the latter—making me almost hesitant to share the shot. Still, the iridescent blue tint on the head and tail of this common grackle (Quiscalus quiscula) is striking.

Quand la lumière danse sur ses plumes, le Quiscale bronzé dévoile son éclat métallique. 🐦
Son cri dure un peu moins d'une seconde et est souvent décrit comme le bruit d'une porte rouillée. 😊
