All though a raven (I'm taking an educated guess here) says nevermore, so much more can be said about this bird. There is a certain furiosity in its gleaming, yellow eye, that is one of a predator's, not a scavenger's.
The raven's feathers reflect the sun beautifully. Normally, when no light can hit a raven's shoulders, the bird itself seems as dark a dreary as the cloudy day it stands in; as if impending some foreboding doom.
But fortunately, light shines down upon the raven, giving it clothing like a rainbow of iridescent blues; shades clashing as if in a battle field.
A furious bird indeed, he/she is.

What bird is this and where does it live?

It's a grackle, and it's pretty common in the US.

Wow. I've never seen one so close up. It's the same as my journal bird, if I'm not mistaken. They really are very lovely.

I wish we had grackles where I live. Such pretty birdsβand you've captured that in this photo, with the bird so distinct against the background and looking almost majestic. Perfect lighting too, highlighting its iridescence. Excellent work!
