The Great-Necked Grackle
About 18″ tall. It’s the largest Grackle. It’s a talker. Check out the colors. Black birds like this never appear to be nothing but that – Black. Their migration area is typically in southern Utah and southward. As of late they are migrating north. They have not crossed my path the last few years. I am glad he stopped and let me watch and photograph his antics!
This looks like one of those birds of paradise from the show Life and Planet Earth…where did you get this photo? It’s awesome!!
