About the Boat-tailed Grackle:

The Boat-tailed Grackle is a large, charismatic songbird found along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the United States. Males are instantly recognizable by their glossy blue-black iridescence and their remarkably long, keel-shaped tails, which they fan dramatically during courtship displays. These bold, social birds thrive in salt marshes, mangroves, and coastal towns, filling the air with their raucous, musical calls.
