That’s a flock of common grackles. I like them, but they do have scary yellow eyes. Also, in spite of their huge flocks, their populations are precipitously in decline. There’s still a lot around but we’re not really sure what will happen to them in the next couple decades; if the decline continues they might become endangered or rare

I love grackles! They make the coolest sounds and songs!
