The Great-Tailed Grackle or Mexican Grackle (Quiscalus mexicanus) is a highly social North and South American medium-sized songbird.  The males are glossy black and iridescent and the females are brown and drab colored.  Although the grackle is black, it is not a blackbird.  It is sometimes mistaken for a crow but is not a member of that family either.  Great-tailed grackles originally came from the tropical lowlands of Central and South America but over the past 140 years have spread into North America.  Grackles forage in pastures, wetlands and mangroves for a wide variety of food.  They eat larvae, insects, nestlings, worms, tadpoles, fish and eggs.  They remove parasites from cattle and eat fruits and grains.  Grackles are highly intelligent birds that can solve complex problems to get food.  The male grackle has a distinctive noisy call.  They communally roost in trees at night and during the breeding season they build a nest in the trees.  This male grackle was photographed while perched in a bush at Walnut Canyon Lakes in Flagstaff, Arizona, USA.

The rook (Corvus frugilegus) is a member of the family Corvidae in the passerine order of birds.  This species is similar in size to or slightly smaller than the carrion crow, with black feathers often showing a blue or bluish-purple sheen in bright sunlight. The feathers on the head, neck and shoulders are particularly dense and silky. The legs and feet are generally black and the bill grey-black. Rooks are distinguished from similar members of the crow family by the bare grey-white skin around the base of the adult's bill in front of the eyes. The feathering around the legs also looks shaggier and laxer than the congeneric carrion crow.
