Boat-tailed Grackle is a slightly smaller-tailed cousin to Great-tailed Grackle, and has a more easterly range. These birds are not afraid of humans and are often found scrounging or begging for scraps around picnic tables and outdoor restaurants, where many regard them as a nuisance. Females lack the namesake tails and bear little resemblance to the males.
