I took a couple shots of this very noisy guy during lunch today, I loved his blue casts in his feathers...can any one tell me what type of bird he is?

I believe that's a grackle, however I'm not a professional.

ahh pretty bird, yet very annoying. In this part of the US many consider them pests as they will flock in the hundreds and leave little presents everywhere and are loud |

Nice photos. I'm a bit of a bird watcher but I've never seen a grackle and they are fairly common here. |

thanks. I feed the wood storks from my front porch several times a week. Their mouths have a definate clacking sound when they shut and their not to picky about their food. the muscovys, on the opther hand, have a serious attitude problem....just as they look like they should have.
thanks..........david
