Common Grackle
Common Grackles appear black from a distance, but up close their glossy purple heads contrast with bronzy-iridescent bodies. A bright golden eye gives grackles an intent expression. Females are slightly less glossy than males. Young birds are dark brown with a dark eye.

Tack sharp focus, we have tons of Grackles in Del Rio. Nice work, Candace.
