What a nice setting for it!

Certainly the colour stands out against the black. Wonder if its song is as musical and mellow as that sung the all-black British blackbird; yet can be a very noisy bird towards the end of a winter's day.

Made me think of the Beatles song ~
"Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise..."
Well shot!
