    I saw some of these birds many years ago – I’d like the change to see and photograph them again. Nice picture.

  17. Come to think of it, they are more well-mannered at the feeder than say the red-winged blackbirds, though a little messy. This is a nice portrait!

  18. I love the sound of their name…. and am fascinated by their eerie look!

  19. love the watercolor effect Pat:-)

  21. I like the grackles,, but a group become a noisy bully crowd that eats everything… Great photo..I love their eye..It shows intelligence to me.. Michelle

  22. Such beautiful texture and image!

  23. wallacejones says:

    They can be loud, obnoxious and just plain mean at times. In the right light and when alone, it’s a handsome bird! Nice image!
