VRVan Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Orlando Wetlands 2-7-19 Is this a boat tailed grackle? He seems to have a dark eye and I have read that some Florida individuals have this. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyE Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I would say yes. This looks like a Gulf Coast/Florida Boat-tailed to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akiley Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Subspecies westoni with the dark eye on a male. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Leukering Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 All of the FL Boat-taileds have dark eyes, except for the subspecies resident (mostly) in the western-most panhandle (and coastal AL and MS). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
