Uh, yes. It's one of the common names for the grackle, but it is also the formal name for some of the smaller species of the crow/raven/jackdaw (corvus) family. I only remember "corvus" due to Edgar Allen Poe and Lewis & Clark.Originally Posted by Aggie_Ama

Coolest thing I have seen is a red tail hawk (very common in central Texas) catch a snake while riding my bike. He just swooped off power line, grabbed him a big ol' snake from a field of cattle and took off with it. Wicked!
