@GlassHalfHopeful @Peanutbuttergrits

not sure where they saw it, but if i saw it around here, i'd call it as Common Grackle

they do have that amount of brown but it's a play of light type of thing where most of the time they just look like an all-over black bird until the light is striking their plumage at the right angle

"i would have laughed if you told better jokes"-- grimly serious Laughing Falcon, probably

(PS- love these birbs!)

@streetfestival @imcan8dn

they do look a lot alike but the lack of the black bar beneath the white wingbar makes this bird a Hutton's Vireo

there's a good comparison pair of photos at this link
