Field Notes
Description:
Common grackles range over almost all of eastern North America east of the Rockies, extending far into Canada in the summer breeding season.
Habitat:
Common grackles are found in open areas with scattered trees (preferably coniferous), including around human habitation. They can also be found in farmlands, orchards and swamps. Common grackles have adapted so well to human structures that they are quite common in open areas such as suburban developments, city parks and cemeteries. In fact, human alteration of forested habitats for agriculture has resulted in an expansion of the range of common grackles and an increase in their numbers.
