Red-winged blackbirds

Lida Richardson

“When I was in residential treatment, I went for my first walk alone in a while (I had kind of started a walking trend, and I love walking with other people, but I was also desperate for some alone time), and I was on a boardwalk in a marshy area when I heard this very persistent birdcall. I looked around, and there were red-winged blackbirds everywhere, kind of hidden among the cattails. I wasn’t”

“Very fun, they’re songs are very cool and watching their defensive nesting behaviors is great”
