That’s a really pretty blue… those birds remind me of the movie ‘The Birds’, kind of freaky birds! LoL! =)
fantastic composition.

I don’t care what people say about grackles, I think they’re beautiful!
The expression on the bird’s face seems stern to me. But it is a stunning and awesome capture! I just love the blue coloring.
Wow! This is beyond beautiful!
Fantastic! Love the colors and how bold/dramatic this is. What an interesting bird.
Wow Pat, I never realized they had this much blue in their feathers.
This is a really wonderful photograph.
You have done something amazing here,,,, making a grackle look beautiful.
Sometimes it is just such a pleasure to view an image with one lone subject and lots of gorgeous negative space. Beautifully done, Pat. Thank you for sharing with Photo Art Friday. Have a great weekend!
I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a handsome looking grackle. What an incredible portrait!!!
And what a portrait it is!
Gorgeous colors and a great capture of the Grackle. Have a great weekend!
They are such pests, but golly — they are gorgeous!!!!!
Wow – what silken blue feathers. So gorgeous.
Its eye looks so simple.
but stares at us so complicatedly.
amazing photo and rendering Pat
totally stunning!
Oh my gosh….this is one incredible piece of work!!!! Stunning.
Fantastic capture of the Grackle and great processing…love it. We have those birds out here and I just love them. I love the way they sound. Every time I see them, I’m usually walking my dog and don’t have my camera with me. I did photograph one, but not as close as yours. I simply love this shot.
Thanks for dropping by my blog and leaving a comment.

oh, I did not know it was so blue at the head and neck. Great work Pat.
The Grackle looks so much like our crow but with that beautiful bright blue!!
What a beautiful bird and beautiful photo! I have never heard of or seen this bird before either.
Grackles look mean and evil, but they sure do make for a beautiful picture. Love this one!
The bird has awesome blue feathers and sharp eyes. Stunning pic.

Beautiful image – I like how sharp the bird is compared to the dreamy background.
What a brilliant blue. I’ve never seen one before. – Margy
