Log in to post comments It's easy to recognize the female of the species, because she's not black and doesn't have red wings. ;-) Log in to post comments why would it be easy to identify if it's NOT REDWINGED and NOT BLACK? Seems it would be a bit confusing to me Log in to post comments I love these birds. Around our house, we only have blackbirds, crows, and vultures. (Besides the ospreys, bald eagles, and on rare occasions, red-tailed hawks.) Log in to post comments they've got such pretty voices... I could listen to them all day long Log in to post comments Yes... that is a male... the female is all brownish in color. Log in to post comments
