Bobolink

The Bobolink, Dolichonyx oryzivorus, is a comical bird to watch.  They showed up in our yard when the surrounding field was planted in wheat.  Haven't seen them since.  These two males were in the top of a sweetgum tree.  I should have some pictures of the female somewhere.  They were pretty numerous for a couple weeks, then disappeared when the wheat was cut.
