Quizcalus mexicanus
Male Great-tailed Grackle in the
McDonald's parking lot on Antelope Drive. It was the only one I
could
see and it was doing its metallic sounds trying to remind people to feed it. I think it's probably a young male.
It's tail was much longer than it looks in this picture as they tend to hold them to the side. © Carol Davis, 3-27-2011
