Hi Bob - you have captured the sheen beautifully - colours look great. Sharp as a tack and techs look solid.
Think the HAP may want to bring you in for questioning. :)

Hi Bob

Most beautiful Grackle I have ever seen, Our grocery parking lots have lots of them, and after seeing yours I will never think them ugly again.

Great job in capturing the specifics. Worth any head angle :p

Thanks for sharing

Hi Bob ... after a lengthy discussion the HA police decided the bird was looking at something in specific and looks good :) I like to make a distinction between the two, one being just off because it was missed and the other the bird doing something !!!

Like the low angle and feather color (sweet) wish it was a little less cluttered but a keeper in my book ... like grackles very much !!!
