If anyone is wondering, that's a red-backed fairywren. Here's some other great fairywrens (literally, it's in their names):

If you haven't already, have you considered installing a few small ramps around the pool for animals to climb out when they fall in? You can find some simple cheap-ish ones on amazon like this one: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81hGTaHIS3L._AC_UF1000,1000_QL80_DpWeblab_.jpg
Not a Nokia and I can't find that exact model but it seems there were a couple of weird round phones floating around in the early to mid 2000's:

There were some other weird as hell designs around that period, like the ones in this article:

I recognise all but one of the phones in that link. The time just before smartphones was a weird moment in mobile phone history.
As someone in the middle of getting laser hair removal, I say go for it if you can and find a good place to have it done. I'm very happy with results even after just a few sessions.
Ah, so that explains why I'm dead inside.
Should...should we tell Squizzy?
Hmm when you say flying in formation do you mean in like a cloud or a specific shape? If so could be starlings as they have a very varied repertoire of songs and can mimic other birds (which might explain why Merlin can't identify them)
When you say 'jagged wings' do you mean you can see the individual feather tips (like fingers)? Could be fish crows? The juvenile sound could be a little seagull-y?
Grackles are usually fully black apart from having lighter eyes. Some species flock together, and like starlings they also minic other birds.
Edit: one thing to note is Merlin doesn't always work well if you've turned GPS off on the phone. That might also interfere with identification
If you're short on time I recommend Great Art Explained in 15 Minutes. May not be exactly what you're looking for but the creator puts in a lot of work and you get to learn some really interesting things about art pieces and the artists who made them.
Where are you based approximately? Europe/Asia/US/etc? Is the bird fully black? Same size as a crow? Any distinguishing information might help!
Hmmm flying in formation like that sounds more like waterfowl. Could it be cormorants? Are you by the shore or near a large body of water? They can be all black like crows and the begging sound of the double crested cormorant does sound kind of seagull-y?
If they're fish crows though, that's cool, they're rarer than the carrion crows we're more used to. In any case I'm glad if I could be of help and I hope you continue to enjoy listening to and watching birds!
France banned soda refills a few years ago to combat obesity. Honestly that makes sense to me.
Would this work for microdontia? I have two front teeth that failed to grow to the proper size and one of them has a very small root, meaning a crown is not an option and I don't want to get implants.
Lemon and milk would be the easiest for me. I'm sure I've had those together before, at least in some dessert.
