    I walk by a lagoon 2 or 3 times a week, lots of ducks etc. Also have a few different sparrows and blackbirds. Today I took pictures of a redwinged blackbird and a golden crowned sparrow.

    We have a bird called a Redwing here too. Both are very handsome birds.

    Here's a link to our Redwing. Sadly they appear to have diminished in numbers over the last few years.

    That Blackbird is unusual to us here,..as probably is our Red Robin to your location.

    A red-winged blackbird? That's a new one to me! Thanks for the education Kildale. I like the sparrow also.
