One of my favorite things to do in spring is grab the camera and take a walk down the road to our local 5-acre pond. I'm never quite sure what I'll find, but the beautiful red-winged blackbird is almost always there to greet me. I'll usually hear him before I see him ... and I invite you to visit Cornel Lab of Ornithology's "What Bird" page to hear his song:

The Cornel lab has this to say about him:
One of the most abundant birds across North America, and one of the most boldly colored, the Red-winged Blackbird is a familiar sight atop cattails, along soggy roadsides, and on telephone wires. Glossy-black males have scarlet-and-yellow shoulder patches they can puff up or hide depending on how confident they feel. Females are a subdued, streaky brown, almost like a large, dark sparrow. In the North, their early arrival and tumbling song are happy indications of the return of spring.
Fine art purchases of this image will not include a watermark, and if I may make a recommendation ... this image will look its very best on the fine art paper choice of "picture rag."

Incredibly beautiful, Lois! My daughter loves these little black birds, I am drawn more to the more vibrant birds, and I always ask her why she loves these so much, she says because they are so special. But they remind me of how special she is! Thank you for the fun reminder! L/f
