    My most despised bird. Sometimes I wish it were in what it is sitting on, but they are so cool looking in direct sunlight.

    Yes it is. They have attacked my back yard again this year so I took all the food out of the feeders. Maybe they won't swing by anymore and scare off my other birds. Here was the other shot I had from that little stop.

    Anybody know why I can't find a "Greckal" in Audubon Birds or Wiki?

    OK, I'm on the other side of the world and I don't know most of the birds posted here, so could you please provide a little more detail for us Aliens.

    It's a "Grackle" , I believe there is more than one variety....this one looks like a Boat tailed Grackle I think.
