Grackle or Grockle is the old name for the Starling down in Devon and Cornwall. They also call tourists "grockles" on account of their habit of descending in great numbers, making a huge mess and then departing. Your bird looks a much more refined individual!

They are everywhere here in AZ and they are pretty bold.
