okay. story? we were hanging out around in my house, when my little brother decided to go outside. he saw something black on our wooden fence, but he thought it was just paint. then it started flapping! he heard it flapping and when he looked over he saw it flapping its wings. he ran in to tell me, and i went to tell my dad. my dad went and grabbed some gloves and came outside with us. the poor thing was traumatized! it was flapping consistently and it’s right leg and right wing were stuck insie the fence! its leg is bleeding and cut but it can fly. so we brought it inside my house and now its kinda just hanging out in my room. it started flying around (i recorded it flying for a while) and a couple of minutes later i went back into the room to go and bandage its leg. we put some antibiotic cream on the cut and wrapped a crayola crayon bandaid on the foot. as soon as i upload the videos onto youtube, ill give you guys the link. but what i wanna know is, what kinda bird it is?
here’s some pictures that i took. i realize that you’ll need the pictures for a closer answer:

some more description… when it’s in the sun, it’s head kinda turns colors. like it turns blue, purple, green, and black. it’s very faint. its like a multicolored bir. but each feather is like that. here’s some more pictures. the first 3 pics were taken before we bandaged his leg. in the last picture, if you look closely at it’s legs, you’ll see the bandaid:

so does anybody know what kind of bird it is? and dont worry, after it’s fully healed, we’re going to set it free again.

i’ve figured out what it is. it’s a common grackle. thanks.
