Birds in Franklin, WI



Here are a redwing blackbird, a swan, and a whatyamacallit. If anyone can identify it, let me know. I had guessed Baltimore Oriole, but I'm not sure. These were taken by a small lake. The birds look pretty peaceful considering the lake is a runway path for Mitchell International Airport! I had to choose between watching planes at about 800 feet or birds! I like watching both!
Note: The whatyamacallit has been identified as a Baltimore Oriole. I also looked it up and found out they do migrate to spend summer in the midwest.
