Day 98 - Grackle and the bat story

I have never been fond of Grackles (this type of bird). I blame them for giving me a phobia of bats. Yes there's a story. As a child I went bounding into my room which startled a grackle which was sitting on my curtain rod. The only way out was above my head and out he flew, which terrified me. I saw a black flying thing and have been afriad of bats ever since.
