A color, profile, macrophoto of a Common Blackbird photographed against a solid black background. Therefore, as the bird is black, only one eye & it's orange beak are visible. The rest of the bird is hidden! 📷 Sebastian Palmay

🌍🌏 Common Blackbird, female (Turdus merula) The female Common or Eurasian Blackbird has an overall sooty-brown plumage, contrasting with the male's glossy black. Her breast is often mottled or streaked with darker brown. She has a brown bill and brown legs and feet. Widespread across Europe, North Africa, and Asia, they are often found in gardens, parks, woodlands, and hedgerows. Typically seen hopping on the ground while foraging for insects, worms, and berries. They are generally solitary but pair up during the breeding season. Several subspecies are recognised. 2.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) Fun fact: The female is solely responsible for constructing the nest. She weaves a solid, cup-shaped structure out of grass stems and small twigs, then packs it with mud and lines it with finer grasses. 📷: Photo by susannp4 via Pixabay https://pixabay.com/photos/wildlife-bird-nature-songbird-3213931/ NOTG

And here is Vebiir-ju himself! He sang always in the middle part of graveyard where I always recognized him by the "Vjeebo, veBIIR-ju, rha viu viu" I name birds inspired from song so that also is a hint who is who ;)

I always knew where he was because of his song. Always at the edge of the graveyard. Thats how songs help to ID the birds, each bird has their own pattern. Video 2 #birds #CommonBlackbird #FlackoWeasel

Kibilo alarm calling. They can alarm call for other BB too or when its their time to zz. That always means that this evening singing is over when its "duk duk" and "pit pit" time and have to retry next evening. Went visiting them for over 3 months. #FlackoWeasel #Birds #Commonblackbird

🌍🌏 Eurasian blackbird (Turdus merula) The male Eurasian or Common blackbird (pictured) is a striking sight with its glossy black plumage, bright yellow bill, and distinctive yellow eye ring. Females are a more subdued brown with paler underparts. These adaptable birds thrive in a variety of habitats, from woodlands and parks to gardens and urban areas. They are known for their melodious song, often heard in the early morning and evening. Blackbirds are omnivorous, feeding on worms, insects, fruits, and berries. They are territorial, particularly during the breeding season, and will defend their nesting sites fiercely.

And another one! This time he was much lower on the branch. They can be tricky to record sometimes as i NEVER know when it decides to go elsehwere or alarm call off. It is usually constant following them and hoping it stays still while singing

Here I saw how Kibilo was sparkling. They do it always at the VERY beginning of the singing season and 2 weeks later not anymore! They stay still or walk like a raptor on the branch while going through their sound test. Its very interesting behavior! #Birds #Commonblackbird #FlackoWeasel

Last blackbird of 2025 is Vadeevo!

Guy was very chill singing up in the tree <3. All the bird songs have been done, but I still have plenty of Dusk/Dawn choruses to do and these take the longest to make.

First blackbird in 2025!! Jerilo! Very shy at first, but later near dusk he became louder and more confident. He also was sparkling many times near dusk time (12:34) like he goes through sound test of his sounds lol

Last blackbird for now, this one is from 2019! Very unique invidual with a bit lower singing tone and slower pace. He also says "mul pole kikilipsu" in Estonian (I dont have a bowtie) He also mimicks great tits sometimes.

Llegó la primera nevada de la temporada y esta hembra de mirlo común decidió hacer una breve parada, mientras tanto los copos de nieve continuaban cayendo y cubriendo todo a su paso. ❄️ 🌧

Common blackbird or Eurasian blackbird (Turdus merula). Adult male. Distribution: Temperate Eurasia and North Africa. Conservation status: Least Concern. CC: EDHY 📷: Photo by Surprising_SnapShots via Pixabay 2021 The photo shows a striking species of thrush with a completely black plumage. Its most distinctive features are its bright yellow bill and eye ring, which add a pop of colour to its overall black appearance. These features are especially vibrant during the breeding season
