Different Calls of the Great-tailed Grackle

Great-tailed Grackle (Quiscalus mexicanus) Calling. Filmed in Guatemala.

[@OspreyFlyer]

Very successful species! Extending their range one Walmart at a time.

[@GrassPunk0512]

I always called these the Walmart birds before I knew what they were called😂

[@paumiller74]

Did they get successful by working hard? Lol

[@timthetoolpool]

Lmao, so I'm not the only one who noticed.

[@elecktronbluegirl]

I came here after seeing them at Sam's club. 😂 I said I ain't never heard a crow sound like that!!

[@Flippy_808]

Oh ffs… first time I noticed them was at a Walmart 🫢

[@rachelrennie4149]

Never in my life has I seen these birds until we moved temporarily from northern Georgia to Dallas, Texas. Suddenly they were everywhere. Everyone else couldn’t have cared less, but I was enthralled by them haha!

[@notafanboy250]

Yeah. I had no idea how widespread they were in Texas. First time I went to Laredo, I was surprised to see it was Grackle heaven. I love this bird.

[@ChrispbaconTT23]

They come to my office at work and make these noises letting me know they’re ready for me to feed them. They’re very intelligent.

[@tammy5654]

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL birds. Interesting, intelligent, whimsical, and fun to watch. I LOVE GRACKLES !!!! ❤️❤️🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🥰🥰

[@danielaguilar6460]

They sound like electricity

[@lesliewolfe7643]

Yesssss! I've been looking for a word to describle some of their sounds and that. is. it. ELECTRICITY!! I was thinking old video game, dial up modem...but those were not quite right. Thank you!!

[@clarissavalencia9993]

I saw these birds for the first time when i visited texas. Gorgeous birds

[@alycefrench5753]

I love listening to these birds, they're everywhere in Las Vegas

[@Supersmedicatedworld]

Watching this video in San Antonio, Tx simultaneously while the Grackles go crazy outside lol pretty neat

[@jimtheedcguy4313]

Growing up in corpus christi, Grackles and Seagulls calls are heard in abundance!!

[@Avelithe]

These things are so common in Texas! Love them.

[@tahlenri]

Love these guys and their funny dances

[@willschep2784]

Amazing sounds they make ! Thank you for sharing !

[@JanusHoW]

With a name like "grackle", I was expecting something akin to a crow or raven.

[@michaelippolito6778]

I have lots of grackles as friends

[@JacqJansen]

Mooi om te horen. Fijn weekend

[@seanmoore9713]

This was my first impression of Texas.

[@dominiscus]

Ive been able to make friends with one after only a week or two of putting out food for them at the same time every day. Very intelligent birds. The grackle will follow me to the mail now, super cool.

[@dcalcat3932]

What do you feed your friend?

[@dominiscus]

@@dcalcat3932 I feed them a bird food mix, as well as some pellets meant for parrots. I also like to give them human food I know they can eat, like different kinds of vegetables

[@shreecreativearts5132]

Nice to see these birds,communicating sounds

[@NateCraven318]

These things seem to only be found in superstore parking lots.

[@quote_nature]

Great observations and audio of the many calls from these grackles!

[@jarmilakacirkova]

A very interesting bird species! Jarmila ​

[@paulloeffel7283]

Beautiful birds, have them in SE Pennsylvania

[@gardeningwithbirds]

Impressive vocals!!👋😊

❤❤❤❤❤bellissima video uccellini grazie mille pace e bene ciaooooooooooooooooo ❤❤❤😊😊😊

[@user-ls8vw7yn8d]

My favorite animal video since a while

[@diannaanderson]

Am sung to by these here in Mesa AZ. Since my backyard is enclosed, I have no pets, AND don't use either pesticides or fertilizer (no chemicals basically) I've found they & other birds use my backyard as a "day trip" for the local fledglings.😊

[@zemyla]

Same, but in Texas. They especially love when I cut my lawn and they can get at the bugs that were chilling on the surface.

[@soundofcosmos]

Looooove them❤❤❤❤❤

[@user-lh6dl2zg1z]

مبهر سبحان الله

[@hellinterface6721]

I lived in TX for a few years. These grackles always made me feel like a hot chick the way they would cat call me from telephone wire to telephone wire every block I walked every day all day and night.

[@juanitagrossi1769]

Que de merveilles

[@AgnesvandenBerg59]

Wow... deze maken echt heel bijzondere geluiden. Mooi vastgelegd👍 Groetjes Agnes

[@devak6698]

Vogels maken heel mooi lawaaikes

[@UlalaGo]

Found these guys by wondering what the laser pew pew birds from our local In-N-Out were called :'] ow my ears but they sure are cute!

[@matthewhensley3681]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@tyler-yp4cf]

Seen them in mexico we don't have them in canada

[@dominiscus]

Yeah they're all over the place here in Corpus Christi TX

[@jeremypreston5009]

Never saw them growing up in California .. Now I'm in Arizona and they're everywhere. They bully the doves pigeons and quails and that makes me happy....i have an irrational hatred of quails

[@deltacommando130]

Are you familiar with the game wildlife park 2?

[@Birdfun]

No??

[@deltacommando130]

@@Birdfun OK, if it's no trouble, would you listen to the main ost for it. There is a bird sound at the start that I'm having trouble identifying. I want to say it's possibly a african bird, but I could be wrong. Hoping you might know what it could be.

[@cedgalvi]

​@@deltacommando130 did you ever find out what it was

[@deltacommando130]

@@cedgalvi no

[@Unspeakable_Cat]

I heard one go: POAWWAA - HOOOOOOOOOIAAAA - MKAAAAAOOAOAAAAAAAA - PEWPEWPEW I think it was a different bird

[@chriskeller3705]

i hate these birds
