Caribbean Blackbirds
Blackbirds. On the island, they are found (and heard!) on parking places or at gas stations. I often wondered why. Finally found out that they like the palms that are planted there. The birds don't show themselves and mimic all kind of sounds while hiding behind the palm leaves. The Caribbean Blackbird (Dives atroviolaceus) is not related to the European Blackbird (Turdus merula).
