Sunday is just as good
as any day for a Grackle Appreciation Post. I know that some people are not fond of them, sometimes because they are mistaken for Starlings, other times because they look and behave fierce. I am infatuated with their beauty, and after the boring winter months happy to have some new birds in front of the lens. It also helps a bit with the power balance in the yard. Things can get wild, but the Gracks do not seem as aggressive or hogging as Starlings and Mourning Doves. And yes, the “downward Grack” is one of my favorite poses of theirs.
