Becky, I know we are going to love living in Sebastian, mainly because we will be right around the corner from my sister and her husband! Thanks so much for the info about Pelican Island Audubon Society, I will definitely want to check them out! I might look into joining the Indian River Garden Club once we are settled down there too.
I got some more photos before we left this evening for basketball games and just had a chance to upload them. The Boat-tailed Grackle is larger and has a longer tail than the Common Grackle, scroll down this page and click on the photo of the Common Grackle and it will bring up photos of both:
