Red-winged blackbird on sumac shrub

When I arrived at the FWG this morning I could hear red-wings calling from at least three locations. There were two in the BYG, one in the ravine, and 3 around the pond. This one was looking very happy to be "home" and I'm sure he was eyeing the cattails and wondering where to stake out his nest site for his lady-love when she arrives in a few more weeks. In between calling, he was pecking away at the sumac seeds.
