Hubby took this pic in Tomorrowland, or possibly in Fantasyland on the way to Tomorrowland. No idea what kind of bird this is. The bird ID sites keep telling me cowbird, but it looks a lot more graceful than any cowbird I've ever seen. Maybe it's the prettified Disney version.

I'm a birder, and that looks like a female common grackle. Not sure, since I'm more accustomed to seeing the great-tailed grackle in our area, but the female grackles tend to be slimmer and are more brownish tinged than the larger male grackles people are used to seeing.

That's a possibility. I was thinking grackles had yellow eyes, but google tells me they have darker eyes when young. Surprisingly shiny for a youngin', though!
