Boat-Tailed Grackle










Boat-Tailed Grackle
 
During one of my trips to Florida I first photographed a brown bird then a black bird flew in as well.  I thought it was two different species, however, when I visited Cornell Labe of Orinthology’s All About Birds site ( http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Boat-tailed_Grackle/id) I discovered that the two birds shown today are female and male boat-tailed grackles.
 

Boat-tailed grackles are common birds all around Florida  and the Gulf Coast. 

Feel free to share with family and friends.
