Just fly in from Transylvania??? by grannysue

Just fly in from Transylvania???

Female Grackles, one landing, the other asking if she just flew in from Transylvania. I thought she looked like Count Dracula as she was coming in for a landing. Hopefully, this will make someone smile.
I was trying to take a photo of the one on the ground, when the other one flew in and photo bombed me - the Grackles seem to be really good at that.
For those that like to know - this was cropped to cut out vast spaces of water and grass that did not add to the photo. Also adjusted the contrast a bit.
Thank you for viewing and commenting.
Awesome

Too funny. What a great capture, Linda. I do not consider this a photo bomb but a wonderful photo.

Great capture! It's an odd, un-bird-like posture and reminds me of vampires in black swirling capes. Thank you for the smile. 8)
