I was able to take a walk in the Fern Ridge Wildlife Area this morning and saw quite a number of Red-wing Blackbirds. Most were on wires or trees and the setting was plain. When this one landed in this pretty fire red bush I was happy to see it. I know it is a Red-wing Blackbird because the wing colors are visible in other shots. The bird was singing a lot too. The Red-wing Blackbird seems to show up in our area this time of year and they stay through spring when they nest.
