Participant Photo: Sick or injured grackle

This grackle was at my feeder today (3/6/24) in Morgantown, WV. Wondering if it is sick or injured. Will be taking the feeders down and cleaning them, but wanted to share with the community as an FYI.

Looks like he might have conjunctivitis (eye disease). and a growth.
