A softly sunlit bird with a black body, a rich brown head, neck, and upper chest, and a thick black conical beak stands on a black metal bar in profile facing right against a marbled creamy brown background.
Yeah, I know people don't like them, but their water drop call is pretty cool and very distinctive.

A red-winged blackbird, positioned diagonally with the tail in the top right corner of the frame, perches on an angled feeder pole and is about to dive towards a tube feeder on the left right. The backdrop is out of focus greenery.
Two bowl feeders and a metal ring are attached to a vertical pole with the ring positioned between the two feeders. An American Robin perches on the metal ring, facing right, head raised high and tail tilted downwards. An Eastern Towhee perches on the rim of the top bowl feeder, back towards the camera. Out-of-focus greenery fills the backdrop.
Per Rob (@robcrank68.bsky.social), today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #BlackHeads and the Alt Theme is #Grey.
I've gone for the primary theme.

A male Common Grackle viewed from the front. His head and breast are several shades of blue metallics.

Another photo of the same Common Grackle with his head turned, showing off some more of his amazing colors.

A Rusty Blackbird, mostly black with a hint of rusty copper on the back and a bright light-yellow eye stands in a shallow puddle filled with fallen leaves.
The world is in such peril, Rusty Blackbirds don't seem very important. Then again, maybe they're more important than ever. If you want to cleanse with some blackbirds, give my post a read. www.understorytales.com/post/rusty-b...

There’s a blackbird that sits on top of my neighbour’s roof and sings for most of the day. It’s so beautiful and uplifting.

Photo by Kort Duce A red-winged blackbird sings at one of my favorite local parks in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, the bird fills the frame as it perches in a small pine tree, belting out its call. Its feathers are puffed out as it sings. The background is a soft blur of green pine needles with patches of gray sky filtering through. In the foreground, a dead pine branch with peeling bark reveals intricate pine beetle grooves zigzagging across its surface.

A male Red-winged Blackbird perches on a clump of sumac berries and screams into the dawn.
For today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #BlackAndRed, we have my favourite jerk bird, the #RedWingedBlackbird, here seen sounding his barbaric yawp.

A Red-Winged Blackbird perches high in the leafless branches of an Ash tree on a clear day in late March. He’s contorted to keep an eye on his fellow flock members, and that makes it easy for us to see his exceptionally clean, strong, slate grey beak.
The Blackbirds are back.

A red-winged blackbird who is not quite old enough for breeding perches on a feeder pole facing right with its head looking down.

A male Red-winged Blackbird with black body feathers and tail and red and white shoulder patches is perched on a light brown cattail in a marshy area. There are more light brown cattails and dried reeds along the edge of a pond with light blue water, with another band of light brown foliage on the opposite shore, along with brown tree trunks and branches and green evergreen trees. Seen at Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge in Concord, Massachusetts.

Photo by Kort Duce A male yellow-headed blackbird takes flight over last year’s cattails at a local nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, the blackbird appears in the lower half of the frame with its wings down and tail fanned as it flies toward the camera, its gaze intense and focused. The background is a soft blur of yellow-brown cattails from the previous season, with a hint of blue water reflecting the clear, bluebird sky typical of Colorado.

Photo by Kort Duce A yellow-headed blackbird attacks an osprey that has just caught a fish and is flying away over a local nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this horizontal color photograph, the viewer looks up into the sky as an osprey crosses the left side of the frame, clutching a small fish in its talons. From below, a territorial yellow-headed blackbird lunges upward, harassing the larger bird and driving it away from nests hidden in the cattails beneath. The background is a soft blur of clouds with a small pocket of blue sky breaking through.

A female red-winged blackbird drops into free fall just before taking flight at a local nature area in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, last year’s cattails rise from a pond, their soft textures framing the scene. The bird is captured mid-air as it launches from its perch, wings tucked away. The background of blurred cattails adds depth, while a band of blue pond water appears near the top of the frame. The image evokes the feeling of Free Fallin' by Tom Petty, from his 1989 album Full Moon Fever. Photo by Kort Duce

A Red-winged Blackbird stands on short green grass. It has dandelion seeds in its beak. It has a small, bright patch of red and yellow on its upper wing, which stands out against its dark body. The bird is facing slightly to the right.
From @alan678.bsky.social the #BirdofTheDay theme is #snacks , any bird eating. The alt is #attitude , birds showing attitude.

Common Grackles are glossy blackbirds, but in sunlight, they display iridescent, metallic colors including purple and steel-blue on their heads, and bronzy-purple on their bodies. Males are more vibrant, while females are duller, often appearing dark brown. Both sexes have bright yellow eyes and long, dark tails. These two birds were perched on brown branches of a tree with more branches and blue sky in the background. Seen at Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuge in Concord, Massachusetts.

Four blackbirds perch on a main branch of a tree: on the left, a starling with back towards the camera; in the middle, two common grackles with iridescent necks looking up towards the sky; and a red-winged blackbird on the right in profile. The backdrop is several side branches from the main branch cutting across the frame.
Three different blackbird species together: two common grackles, a starling, and a red-winged blackbird.

A red-winged blackbird sings at one of my favorite local parks in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, the bird perches on a budding branch just beginning to unfurl its leaves. Positioned in the upper center of the frame and shown in left-side profile, its beak is open mid-song. Warm, late-afternoon light bathes the scene, front-lighting the bird in rich golden tones, while the background melts into a soft, creamy blur. Below the bird, a large white bokeh orb—created by a distant sign—adds a striking visual accent. Photo by Kort Duce

Yes, the loud and strikingly brightly colored male Red Winged Blackbirds do get a lot of attention, but the females are just elegantly beautiful!

A red-winged blackbird sings at sunset in one of my favorite parks in Longmont, Colorado. In this horizontal color photograph, the bird perches within a leafless bush, silhouetted against a tangle of branches glowing warm yellow in the fading light. Its head, captured mid-song, stands out vividly as the setting sun forms an oblong halo behind it while dipping below the Rocky Mountains. The blackbird’s claws appear oversized, sharply defined against the delicate branch they grip. Photo by Kort Duce
