Bird Watching in WalMart?
WalMart is not only a great place to overnight in your RV, it’s also a great place for birding. Our “low price leader” is reaching out to our feathered friends who are enjoying the fresh produce. 
Oops, is that a clean-up in aisle one?
This female grackle perches on the rafters, then swoops down to check out the low prices.
So, next time you’re in WalMart keep an eye skyward because you never know what you might see.

Jim -- I have done some birdwatching at Costco. The birds get in and can't get out. At a friend's home in northern California I did some bat watching in the garage. A bat was circling around one night. I opened the garage door for a couple of hours. Never saw the bat again. Is a bat a bird? Or just a flying mammal?

That bird looks very happy. I hope things turn out OK for him. Grackles are extremely smart and can be trained to eat out of your hand. I met one named Fred on a swamp boat tour near Miami that could do that, and he even figured out when the food was transferred from one person to another.
