Is this a Common Grackle ( shot on Tuesday @ Munson Pond )

Here is that recording of that possible Common Grackle at Munson Pond. It is the distinct sound at the back of the geese and others. You may want to turn up the ol' sound on your computer, because it's quite quiet. Any opinions???

It calls at 0:01, 0:02, 0:05, and 0:09.

Thanks for your help.

    Certainly an intriguing sound, but I'm afraid I don't think one can be sure of anything based on that alone. A lot of those ichterids (blackbirds/orioles) are capable of a wide variety of sounds, particularly the common Brewer's & Red-winged Blackbirds that frequent the Munson's Pond area. I like the way you're thinking though!

    Thanks Russ, I was thinking overly-positively; your guess makes more sense.
