Is this from your trip? I think it is a great tailed grackle. I saw them in San Antonio,the males are twice the size of the female and they look like a bigger grackle than the ones we have, but they fan their tails really cool to me, and the female are nuch smaller and brownish like this.
With that beak, my 1st reaction was grackle; but in GA they are darker & maybe a bit bigger. Not a cow bird, as they are all brown. I'll stick with Krazy4kardz view below. God bless birds.
Ooooh that's a female Great-Tailed Grackle, I believe... I recognize those hateful critters anywhere! It also looks like the boat- tailed grackle, but they have brown eyes and are smaller (and cuter!).
The bird was in Texas, along the gulf coast but NOT a shore bird. The hung in big flocks around the motel, the parking lots, etc. Around the size of a robin. IT IS A BOAT-TAILED GRACKLE, thanks for hte help
