A male goldfinch fits that desciption, but only the top of the head is black.
The bird you are referring to is a Grackle. The female has the yellow eyes.
blue heron
I believe it is a Waxwing you are describing
There are two that I know of. They are the Common Grackle and the Brewer's Blackbird.
It means you got eyes! Be grateful!
The bird with black markings around its eyes is called a common grackle.
The bird you are describing is likely a Cedar Waxwing. They have a light brown body, a black mask around their eyes, a yellow tip on their tail feathers, and a crest on their head. Cedar Waxwings are commonly found in Southern Ontario and are known for their sleek appearance and high-pitched calls.

I believe I have found the answer to my own question. I think the bird I saw was a red bellied woodpecker.
