Red-winged Blackbird

Bird weighing 50.8 g. Migratory. Lives in fields and in marshes. Feeds on seeds. The male and the female do not look alike. That is often what explains two very different birds in photos of the same species.

There are 70,401 observations of Red-winged Blackbird in Québec, mostly in Montérégie, Estrie and Outaouais, and it has been reported in every region. They peak in April and May and become rare from August to February.
