message: I'm currently on the Pacific coast of Oaxaca state, Mexico. The most common bird here looks like a relative of the crow but I've been unable to find out what it's called in English or Spanish. A local informant has told me they're called "urraca" but that means "magpie" and it doesn't match the pictures of anything I can find on the web under those terms.
The birds are quite smaller than crows and seem to mimic a wide range of other bird calls but have no sound like any crow I've heard. They are black with the males being very glossy which appears blue in the right sunlight. The females are dull and appear brown to almost yellow. They have a fascinating personality. Unfortunately I don't have access to a digital camera to attach a photo. Can you help me identify this bird? (crossposted to Talk:Corvidae) — Hippietrail 16:16, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably a Grackle (most likely Boat-tailed Grackle) from the description (they are very noisy and sometimes puff themselves up when calling). Yomanganitalk 16:27, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks! The birds here seem to be Great-tailed Grackles. — Hippietrail 20:14, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
