This bird showed up in my yard at dusk tonight. It was a dark grey color. I've never seen a bird that looked like it before.

I took the photo through a window, so it is not a sharp, clear photo. It's the only photo I got of this unusual bird. Sorry.

Can anyone possibly ID this bird for me. I am seeing more and more migrating birds showing up in my yard now. It's still very hot here, but I hear the weather has definitely turned cold in the upper Northern states.

Thanks for any information you can shed on this bird.
