I have always though red-winged blackbirds to be rather skittish so kudos in capturing this close-up!

I’ve yet to see/hear my first one, but I know they are around. A cheerful harbinger of spring.

They have certainly arrived here in our area as well, and our nesting all over the wetlands now! Love to see a new nest or two pop up every week!

I hope you start seeing them soon! I’ve had a few at my suet feeder the last week. Spring is here although it’s brought snow with it. π

That old song about anticipation popped into my head. The bird can eat my ear worm… π
