Wow. Never heard of a grackle, but love the name - and what beautiful feathers! Thanks for sharing. I don't think we have them here - bloody well have bloody bloody blackbirds though.

New to me also. At first I started calling it a Gracken (confusing it with Cracken maybe 😄). But once you've seen this lovely bird, you will know it.
Thanks for stopping by, @riverflows
Sometimes we don't notice certain birds until we do, if that makes sense. For me it's what I call a spangled pigeon, which is actually a common bronzewing. I have seen them all my life but not REALLY seen them, if that makes sense. Then I started to notice them more as there was a family around here. They sound like a cow blowing into a bottle. I love them.
Now that conjures a memorable experience😆
Beautiful bird!
