What is the name of this medium size black bird w/ a yellow beak?

Category: Backyard Bird Questions and Answers

I live in S.Texas, the bird is black, not a grackle, has a short tail w/ a bright yellow beak & makes like a fan or fern sound.

I havent found what I believe is the right answer yet..
sorry kimi.. close. but i dont think so. The eye is just black no yellow around it.. along w/ a short stubby tail.
