Great-tailed Grackle (Quiscalus mexicanus)
7-Eleven
1406 Corsicana Highway
Hillsboro, Hill County, Texas
An organized pandemonium breaks out as a large flock of Great-tailed Grackles begins the process to roost for the night in the trees surrounding the 7-Eleven next to a state highway and I-35 North. The Humans are loud in their motorized machines and so are the Great-tailed Grackles in communicating the day's events to one another. And they're still looking to find food.
