The Goth Grackle

The Goth GrackleRivaling the raven in bleak world views, this bird ain’t happy unless everyone else is unhappy. He’ll peck on your window pane, then turn away. It’s not attention it wants from you, it’s annoyance.

Repelling this bird:

  • “Fun” window decals of bunnies and rainbows.
  • Playing ABBA very loud.

    Search under his feathers and you’ll find a tattoo. Some of them even go in for multiple wing-piercings.

    I heard Poe originally had a grackle in mind for his famous poem. Maybe this bird thinks if it keeps on tapping at the window, someone will commemorate him in verse.
