Throughout the east and Midwest, the Common Grackle is a big blackbird and is a very familiar species on suburban lawns, striding about with deliberate steps as it searches for insects. The Common Grackle often nest in small colonies, and several males may perch in adjacent treetops to sing their creaking, grating songs. Big flocks are often seen flying overhead in the evening, heading for major communal roosts, especially from late summer through winter.
