Used to have a wide variety of songbirds, but not anymore. These shiny black grackles have didplaced the ither birds. They work together to hassle any great Owl or Hawk in the area by taking turns destroying the hunt and tiring the large birds until they leave.
They let the songbirds come in the Spring, build nests, then they peck the eggs or drag the young from the nest and drop them on the pavement from altitude. this is a team effort, with sentries posted on tall trees to warn the flock.
Adult common grackles measure from 28 to 34 cm (11 to 13 in) in length, span 36–46 cm (14–18 in) across the wings, and weigh 74–142 g (2.6–5.0 oz).[6] Common grackles are less sexually dimorphic than larger grackle species, but the differences between the sexes can still be noticeable. The male, which averages 122 g (4.3 oz), is larger than the female, at an average of 94 g (3.3 oz).[7] Adults have a long, dark bill, pale yellowish eyes, and a long tail; their feathers appear black with purple, green, or blue iridescence on the head, and primarily bronze sheen in the body plumage. Adult females, beyond being smaller, are usually less iridescent; their tails in particular are shorter, and unlike the males, do not keel (display a longitudinal ridge) in flight and are brown with no purple or blue gloss. Juveniles are brown with dark brown eyes.

Anyone else getting tired of these pestocide articles being written by little bitches who choose not to put their foot down by writing "could be"?
We really need any elaborate research to tell us that poison used to kill bugs, are harming birds because you know... they eat bugs.
Song birds are whats written about but it could be as simple as song birds being loud and popular with people that they are even being noticed. Who knows how many birds that dont sing have died due to pesticides...
