Boat-tailed Grackle
The Boat-tailed Grackles are very abundant in all the areas of the Coast of Georgia, that includes all of the islands.
These birds have adapted very well to the wetlands and marshes of Georgia and also very conveniently to the parks of the urban areas. They forage on a variety of food, from food discarded in garbage bins to fish scraps and small fish picked right from the water. They are omnivores and eat very indiscriminately. They are large birds with a voracious appetite. Travel in groups commonly.

great shots and it is interesting to read about all those birds.. you seem to know an awful lot about them!
Thank you Joanna for your comment!:)
I have problems separating the boat-tailed grackles from the raven and crow. I’ll learn.
Ravens and Crows are larger and not as good-looking. Their eyes are black, the Grackle’s are white
Ah. Eye color. That will help. Thanks.
