Description
...still doing some pre-spring file cleaning. Found this fine figured North American 'Common Grackle' in a 2009 file.
...he can't sing a note. Grackles are not known for their songs, but for having loud scratchy voices and squawking cries.

Wonderful bird and fabulous shot !!!
excellent pic
Magnificent selective focus and color work, Bill. Grackle eyes creep me out.
Well, he'll never be much competiton for G4, but he does have a handsome physique - for a grackle.... Great capture of him, Bill!
Yes--lovely blue-black coloring--we have grackels here in Mexico also--altho they seem larger and louder and more interested in each other--thank goodness--nice shot there!
He may not be able to sing, but he sure is pretty :d
Oh my. This brings back memories! :) Terrific shot of this beautifully dark and shiny fellow.
Excellent shot bud, there is something very satisfactory in bird photography do you agree?
Beautiful capture
lovely
So pretty when the sun hits them. Nice capture.
Oh, he IS a looker---and seems to know it!
Who's a pretty boy then.
Such a handsome chap! This is a terrific pic, I should definitely recognise him if we met.
He is a beaut Bill and you have captured him well.
You caught him swallowing some sunflower seeds...very nice!
What a lovely bird and so beautifully captured, Bill.
Posing for the camera-Terrific
One for my favorite list. Superb capture Bill. God Bless.
But he is extremely handsome! What a profile! You have some real beauties hiding in your files, I see...
Beautiful capture with great DOF Bill!
Outstanding !!!!
he is a wonderful colour, great pic. xx
An excellent capture Bill and a must zoom of this iridescent beauty!! Key West is a great spot but some areas with very narrow strets. If you are going to RV down, and I think I remember that you tow a car, you might want to camp before Key West and drive down each day. If I can be of any help about south Florida, ask away. I can site mail you my E-mail address if you want it.
I do suppose it's fair to say, he can try until he's black and blue in the face, and still you won't hear much from him ;) a very striking figure, BB
this is so fine!
This is a beauty! Love the colors and clarity here..
beautiful capture!
Such a great attitude, like a performance, wonderful!
Very nice shot Bill, excellent detailing.. I have seen a couple up in Maine, can't recall much of a noise from them lol Rob
