Common Grackle Range Map
Common Grackles occur throughout the United States east of the Rocky Mountains; in Canada, these grackles are found north to the latitude of the Hudson Bay and as far northwest as northeastern British Columbia. They usually nest in dense colonies with as many as 10 to 30 pairs and occasionally a colony will have more than 100 pairs. Common Grackles favor conifers close to open areas and water as nest locations, although a wide variety of sites-from open nests built in clumps of marsh grass in Red-winged Blackbird colonies to old woodpecker holes and the interior of barns-have been observed.
