Cityview Park John Prior 'Spring is here' I caught this female Red-winged Blackbird against a great background with some Spring blooms as well.	Red-winged blackbird Isabel Melchiorre Photo 1 and 2 - While taking a hike with my sister, this red-winged black bird stopped by for a visit. It seemed to pose for me and sat on the boardwalk with my sister and I for several minutes, not afraid to say hello. I think it's safe to say she knew she was very cute.

Odocoileus virginianus, Agelaius phoeniceus Kathleen Noel While on a walk on an late May evening I stumbled across this white-tailed deer grazing and much to my surprise a red-winged blackbird came flying in and paused seemingly to greet the deer as if they were the closest of friends, before engaging in a spectacular display of symbiosis by swooping around and eating bugs off of it along with her mate.
Odocoileus virginianus and Agelaius phoenicius Kathleen Noel While I was in the early stages of learning the ropes of wildlife photography one evening in late May on an evening stroll I was watching a cottontail rabbit hop around the path at a creek by my house when out of the corner of my eye I spotted a white-tailed deer grazing amongst the phragmites and cattails on the islet in the center of the creek right across from me so I set about trying to photograph it and in the process witnessed a scene straight out of a storybook as a pair of red-winged blackbirds swooped in and began to feast on bugs off the deer.	Red-winged Blackbird Jeannine St-Amour American Robins and Red-winged Blackbirds are the first to arrive in the spring. Even though they are very common birds, I like to capture them in flowering crabapple trees to highlight them.
Red-winged blackbird Shivam Rajdev Title: Creating Photos! Description: When I saw the way the light was highlighting this tree, I knew I wanted to capture that. Did you notice the breath? Species: Red-winged blackbird	Red-winged blackbird Shivam Rajdev I had wanted to photograph bird breath for some time and what better species to do that with than this one. On this morning, it was cold, clear and calm - the 3 Cs needed to make this work. To capture such a shot, you need to shoot in the direction of the sun just as it is coming up. A dark background is important for the breath to be visible. This is a red-winged blackbird and this photo was taken at Miner's Marsh, Nova Scotia, Canada.

Red-Winged Blackbird Laurie Crookell This stunning red-winged blackbird swooped in from the pond and landed nearby while I was looking in the other direction. I was lucky to get a quick shot!	Red-winged Blackbird Kiana Virgoe I spent an afternoon on a floating boardwalk at Grundy Lake Provincial Park to see what I could observe in the marsh. The cattails made out to be a haven for many red-winged blackbirds and I was spoiled for choice. I was especially thrilled to get a shot of this male singing his little heart out.

Red-Winged Blackbird Dorothy Dow	Great Blue Heron, Red-winged Blackbird Pierre Tran I was focused on the Great Blue Heron hunting for fish, waiting to capture the moment it catches its prey. But the Heron strayed too close to a Red-winged Blackbird’s nest and the tiny female Blackbird in a heroic attack on the bigger bird bombed my shot.
Cardinal Jules Gagnon During a recent visit to Fletcher Gardens I came upon a male Cardinal having a dispute with a female Red-winged Blackbird over access to a feeder. A very interesting confrontation with both birds assuming a variety of poses and attacks. In the flurry I captured this photo.	Red-winged Blackbird Nelli Savelieva

Red-winged blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus) Mark Bernards On a visit to one of my favourite local storm water ponds, I came across some red-winged blackbirds hanging around in the reeds near the path. I noticed the sun poking through a tree in the background, with one particularly bright spot. I shuffled to the side so that I could position the bird right in front of the bright spot. It was still a bit tricky to get the composition right, because the reeds and the tree move in the wind, but with burst mode and a little patience, I was able to get a shot with this bird in silhouette and framed by the bright sunspot.	Red-winged Blackbird Brenda Klosse I always have my camera close by. The red on this bird was spectacular and I was able to get some good shots with a blurred out green background. I really liked the effect.

Red-winged Blackbird Paul Kusmin This was one of those "right place right time" moment when i found a bird fending off another male during breeding season and maybe also giving the female a show.

Red-winged Blackbird (female) Carol Boyce My husband and I went to Lois Hole Provincial Park to observe and photograph birds and landscapes before sunset.

I loved how they stood out, being on branches without leaves with nothing behind. I like the starkness of the photo in black and white. The position of the birds also tells a bit of a story, I think.

Canada Goose, Red-winged Blackbird Linda Danyluk Water Rights Battle: this Red Winged Blackbird thought the entire canal was his territory. He did not hesitate to dive bomb the goslings and only his remarkable agility saved him from harm. Papa Goose did an admirable job defending his family. The blackbird was relentless in his obsession to defend his nesting territory along the canal bank and did not cease his attack until the goose family swam well beyond its nest.

I am always amazed at how tenacious the parents are in protecting their young. They will attack birds and animals much bigger than themselves. This juvenile had successfully fledged and was becoming quite independent. I like the perch with the Golden Glow flowers surrounding the bird. The Golden Glows were approximately 14 feet high.

Carouge à épaulettes France Rivet En mai 2009, lors d'une promenade à l'Arboretum d'Ottawa, je me suis arrêtée aux abords d'un marais pour observer les carouges qui s'en donnaient à coeur joie dans cette mer de quenouilles. Puis, à ma grande surprise, ce carouge à épaulettes est venu se poser juste devant moi et s'est mis à chanter. Je ne pouvais demander mieux.
