I like Grackles. I know some people think them a pain but they are colorful in the right light. Nice job

Very hard to pass up an opportunity to photograph these beautifully iridescent birds, it's so cool to capture that instant when they turn into the light just right.
This is a real beauty of a portrait Karl, love the subtle changes from blues to purples, killer detail... and killer eye too.
I hope you told him to chill out.
Excellent work buddy.

Great shot. Nice job of capturing their color/shine. They always looked possessed for some reason!

Beautiful shot Karl. Perfect exposure on the blacks and that sheen is excellent.

To be honest Karl I should be happy with saying Excellent!!!! To my eye the bird is technically perfect, you really have to love what the 5hun can do bare, this is a perfect example, wow!!! Just to nit.... should I Oh what the heck you love my rants. The bg could be toned down a bit more, it really does keep pulling my eye away from the Evil One.

Love the shot Karl

Gotta agree with the others, Karl: that's a scary looking dude, dude .
But you gotta love the crows, ravens, blackbirds and grackles of the world- they all have real personality.
Even when a good and lucky photog gets a glaring look like this .

Tim- You should have seen the BG 'before' I toned it down Thanks, I needed a nit!

I can see why other songbirds leave when they are around. What a dazzling shot, Karl. Great capture.
