The black bird is a bird of the order Passeriformes, in the family Icteridae.
Graúna (derived from the tupi “guira-una” = black bird), is also known as black-bird, black-and-white (Maranhão and Piauí), cornstarch, chopim, chupim (São Paulo), chupão (Mato Grosso) , black and cupid (Ceará), blackbird and craúna (Paraíba).
Among the various inspirations for the popular songbook, this one stands out for its lyrics and strength in the voice of Luiz Gonzaga:


This song reports a cruel act between gaioleiros, mainly from the northeast, who pierced (in some regions they still do) the graúna's eyes, thinking that this way he would sing more in the cage. This bizarre procedure is also done with thrush.

Graúna (black bird), character of the Brazilian cartoonist Henfil, made the head of an entire generation. Northeastern, illiterate and very clever, she starred in the pages of Jornal do Brasil and the hebdomadário O Pasquim with Bode Orellana and Cangaceiro Zeferino, bringing a critical and acid humor that denounced the actions of the Dictatorship in the 1970s and 1980s.
