GRACKLES!!! Bossy, bold, and always busy -- this female Great-tailed Grackle isn't messing around!
Female Great-tailed Grackles may not have the flashy iridescence of the males, but they’re just as bold. They build the nests, raise the young, and are excellent scavengers. Scientists actually study grackles to understand how animals adapt behaviorally and cognitively to human-dominated landscapes. Their ability to thrive in cities makes them a model species for resilience!
