Quiscalus mexicanus
Large blackbird, slim in body with long tapered tail that fans out in flight. The male's black color is iridescent like the Red-wing and Brewer's Blackbird. The eyes are yellow and bill is long and slightly curved. Legs are long. The call of the bird is unmistakeable.
This was in the same flooded field that has island of reeds as the Yellow-headed and Red-winged Blackbirds.
