Red-wing Blackbird Singing
This guy was singing for us on a recent visit to the Tallgrass Prairie Preserve outside of Powhuska, OK. The main draw at the preserve is the large herd of bison that is protected here. We didn't see many bison on this trip, but we did hear a lot of songbirds entertaining us.
A few years ago, we had a red wing blackbird nesting next to our campsite. They let us know every time we were too close to the nest and were an interesting neighbor. They screech like an osprey whenever a larger bird would get near them to scare them away. They are a pretty cool little bird.
