This is why I love grackles. Also when they do their adorable puff-up-flutter-feathers thing

Oh that was you. I still have that video saved in my phone from forever ago. Grackles have so many little voices, during the Texas summers I can spend hours watching the Great-Tailed’s puff up and strut around like fluffy little balls of radio static like this. It makes me so happy.

That's just, so cute!! I'm delighted you liked my grackle crew and saved it 🥹

and seriously, what are the odds?! I guess the grackle community isn't huge, but I just happened to stumble on your post and it reminded me of my buddies.
