Blackbird

Blackbird

Description:
The males live up to their name but, confusingly, females are brown often with spots and streaks on their breasts. The bright orange-yellow beak and eye-ring make adult male blackbirds one of the most striking garden birds. One of the commonest UK birds, its mellow song is also a favourite.

Where to see them:
Found everywhere in gardens and countryside and from coasts to hills, although not on the highest peaks.


What they eat:
Insects, worms and berries.
