Had to look that up, what a cracking bird. Would love it if one ever managed to turn up in my garden. Female blackbirds can have quite a range of brown hues, the lighter they are the easier the spots are to er.. spot.
Every day,now a female Blackbird sits on the step at the kitchen door awaiting currants. We whistle at one another. She is joined once currants have been dispensed by up to 14 other birds who squabble. She reappears regularly during the day if she sees anyone in the kitchen. In summer, she comes in.
