Earlier this week, at Lake Cachuma's Hook'd Bar & Grill, I noticed a Yellow/Yellow banded Great-tailed Grackle. I reached out to Corina Logan and she confirmed *"Yes, this is one of the grackles that I banded and worked with last year. He was over there at Lake Cachuma in November during the storm, but before and after that he was along the waterfront in downtown SB." *
To me, 30 km (20 miles) seems quite the distance for a grackle.
