There are no European birds that can sing like a Blackbird. To hear the song of a Blackbird fills you with pure joy especially early on a lovely Spring morning.
My mother died on an early spring morning I left her and when I stepped out of my car a blackbird was singing his heart out It was such a beautiful thing to hear.it was like he was singing for her. She loved nature and taught me to love it too - so it was such a natural , simple and lovely way to honour her . I hope she heard him too .
Bless, Something black birds do what others birds don't part from the Robin, when they sing it gives us that warm feeling & we have a part of the world just like them...
My Uncle chose to have some woodland birdsong playing while people were taking their places before his funeral. Just amazing, and better than any human nade music in those circumstances.
I befriended a male blackbird, and he visited me multiple times daily for food for the last few years(apart from their winter migration). He would bring his mate and chicks, hop up to the window, and get my attention by singing his song. This year he disappeared so early(late June) without reason, and his mate is still around. I fear he has died. The days sound so empty without hearing his song. Miss it a lot. It’s sad hearing other blackbirds in the distance and not one of them is singing my guy’s distinctive song. Thanks for the video, it was nice to hear a blackbird singing loudly once again :)
@@romainbocquet no, sadly, he never returned 😭 his mate(who I named Raisin) still came to visit me every day. Then earlier this year, Raisin was killed in front of me by a neighbour’s cat. I was devastated. When I spoke to the neighbours, they said their cats had brought home the body of a male blackbird the previous year. Seems like the neighbour’s cats killed both of them :( Sorry this story doesn’t have a happy ending
They are extremely musical! Been fascinated for all my life. I once listened for about 30 minutes+ to just one blackbird, it already surprised me how different the tune sounded to what i hear normally, guess it was a playful blackbird, it was so articulate, emotive, melodic and rhythmic and never repeated a single phrase exactly like the one before, it was like an amazing sonata. I think their songs depend much on the time of day and possibly time of year too, also region and of course the bird itself im now studying it to learn and emulate on instruments
This is my favorite song, the most beautiful and precious sound I know ... No human hit can compare with this song! ... Every spring, when I hear the first blackbird starting the spring song, I am filled with a dancing joy! ...
Oh thank you for that call of nature. I do so miss the gardens of England and feeding birds in the garden. This recording makes me feel that I am back in UK in my old garden and not here retired in Cyprus.
Did you notice that blackies always choose the highest place of the neighbourhood to perform their musical act : the maestro proudly stands on TV antennas, or on the top corner of a roof... and they start their musical frenzy. They make no mistake about it : the Blackbird is a star and it knows that perfectly ! (because those birdies are soooo smart !) -
Nothing much touches the Black Bird singing in the morning, one of our true treasures of hearing this wonderful bird that graces our green and pleasant land.
J Taylor, sorry for your loss. My mum and dad, retired after working hard all their life, sat in the garden listening to the blackbirds. Mum especially loved hearing these beautiful birds. Mum and Dad gone now so it's down to me. I get the same pleasure
For a long time there was a blackbird and Robin used to come into my garden together every day to the bird bath. It was maybe 30 years ago..best friends.
Thanks so much for posting this. I never imagined being able to see a Blackbird singing so close; amazing to hear the complexity of the song and the quieter parts of the song too, never noticed those little chirps before. Very beautiful, and very humbling too.
Love, love, love it!! I often used to sit at my bedroom window and just absorb a glorious blackbird's call, so relaxing, so heavenly. Nature is truly beautiful 🌷
I love when the song of a blackbird wakes me up, during summertime, at 4 am. I know is stupid o'clock, but still nice. Everything else is silent except its voice and is so relaxing.
This is wonderful footage and I could listen to him (or her) singing all day long :) I think many, many people have forgotten about the beauty of mother nature...
Szemet lelket gyönyörködtető! Szerencsére hallhatom élőben is őket. Csodálatosan kitisztitotak a fergektől a kertet is. Meg azg ne igazán kecses lótücsköt is, lattam amint a kicsi csőrében kapálózott a levegőben.
AH I FAINNALLY FOUND THE SOURCE OF THAT BEAUTIFUL SOUND!!! It looks as adorable as the sound it makes. THANK YOU BIRDIE FOR MAKING MY SPRING DAYS 100 TIMES BETTER💕💖💕💖💕💖💕
This blackbird deserves an oscar, when i hear them sing i think we are coming out of winter and leaving the early dark evening behind and soon will be enjoying the sun on my face with an early evening walk ,after being stuck at work all day
A beautiful blackbird lives nearby my house. There are many here, but this one is special. We watched this happen two times: he lands on a specific street lamp, and sings for minutes straight. It's a beautiful show.
I miss the song of the Blackbird , I live in West Australia but each visit home to Ireland brings me joy to listen to the evening song of the Blackbird.
When i was in Elementary school my mom and I where at the park when we came across one of these babies, it had fallen off its nest and we had no idea where it was. We decided to take it home since it wouldn't survive on the ground for long. We gave it a little bath and removed its fleas which it was full of. Then we got a regular canary cage and put it in there. We named him Dino and we had him for about 3-4 years before he escaped. He was an awesome bird, we'd let him fly inside the house freely, even though he shat all over the place. One day I got back from my vacation and his cage was outside. I opened the gate to try and grab and pet him and he slipped out and flew away instantly. Although I can't be sure if it was him, we'd see a blackbird stop by at our balcony from time to time the following years.
The blackbird evening chorus reminds me of summer evenings as a child. I love the blackbird song and always stop to listen when I hear them. Such a distinctive and beautiful song.
I NEVER get bored of hearing them. Everyone of them has its own repertoire. But above it all, behind the perfect control of notes (time and pitch), listen how easily they master the psychological climates they create with that : as noodles said they can sound comical, or reproachful thanks to other tone choices, or even sometimes dreamful, or polyphonically real eery (listen at 2:19 !!) or admirative, just like if they were whistling at a girl in the street... very human without the shadow of a doubt indeed.
Awesome - just what I need for training the young female blackbird we've been caring for since we rescued her from a busy road. :) Thank you for posting this!
Whenever one sang nearby me, I used to imitate its song. I remember once, one was annoyed, it would come down, close to me, and sing over me as if to say "Knock it off. You can't beat the real thing!"
I love listening to hm tryn to beat the other birds I’m the loudest and tis is my patch Every morning and evening Tis is wat it’s all bout bringing joy just by singing
it reminds me of a poem written by Theophile Gautier.and it says: c'est un merle, chanteur credule, qui reve soleil et module l'hymne d'avril en fevrier. it says that it starts signing in February,when it dreams of sunshine, and pretends that it is April. Love it when it comes back every year.
Blackbird has spoken like the first bird,so true .the song expresses such beauty ,it evokes peace ,tranquility ,an english meadow stream ,meandering past ,perfect summers day ,❤
They nest somewhere nearby, I hear them in early mornings and evenings. On my way to work at 5:00 am I always meet the same one (I'm pretty sure) he is sitting on the same branch as every morning and singing. I'm thinking about the name I should give him...he brings so much peace to me
Wow what an angle. Any closer I may be in its gullet! You really get a sense of this birds awareness from its eye movements captured so incredibly by this film. Great work. Never get bored from hearing the Blackbird. A reliable alarm clock and much kinder on the ears than the mechanical type, a little early admittedly, but forgiven as its so beautiful. Thanks for filming.
Every phrase different. Beautiful. My favourite time of day, late afternoon in spring, sitting on my patio with a glass of wine and listening to this wonder of nature.
Take it, over the years, you've all noticed how their next line always seems to come in on time, and how sometimes, they'll repeat something note perfect, almost human, even. Sometimes, they'll stick in a note at the end of their line, so at odds with the phrase, it can sound comical.
Conor Walker I'm wondering if they are territorial, I don't know. All I can say is that Blackbird season is sadly ending here in the west of Scotland. March to June, though I have heard them late July, 2001. I wonder why they quieten off? Or maybe they go back to Scandinavia.
Fantastic close-up of a beautiful bird. Like an earlier comment suggested, you can literally see the blackbird in the video making up his mind what to sing next.
i miss sitting by the lake reading a book and listening to these birds the blackbirds song was always my fav to listen too and sometime i had a rare treat and would get to see a woodpecker untill my dog scares them all away by jumping into the lake XD good summer times
These are the sounds we should wake up to,not a alarm clock in a box room
Those jerks start singing around 3 to 4 AM so yeah, with an open window in spring you WILL wake up to them XD
Word.
@@Nutmeg- 🤣
I do wake to them singing just outside my window, typically a drongo bird and sparrows and other birds
Not an alarm Hehe ITS not a alarm

I love to hear blackbirds sing towards dusk in the spring!
We heard also alot of wood pigeons singing dusk
I love their song, so beautiful & I know warmer days are coming 🌸🌺🌻🌿
Every evening I sit in my very large Garden in North Wales and listen to our very own Black Bird. They are my favourite bird. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it.
One of the most beautiful and relaxing sounds in the natural kingdom of life!
Couldn't agree more!
My three year old loves this. Preparing him for future hiking trips.
Medicine for the soul. Thank you for posting this.🙏🏾
Thanks for watching.
All birds are little angels and they sing so beautiful!!! Celestial music!!

How can anyone not like the sound of birds singing

I love the blackbird song - I love when they sing at dusk on a Spring evening, so haunting but beautiful
I agree wholeheartedly!

I love blackbirds, it's a little inspiring to me to see a little blackbird singing his heart out.
Great footage...far better than most of TH-cams other birdsong loops
The soundtrack of summer...
And spring
This is what i hear every month every day. Every minute every second

after July when the breeding season is over the black bird stops singing until the following February.
@@jimmyireland6635 And thank you Lord for that!

Beautiful. I love the way you can see him listening and then responding. Also the way puts his head back and sings from deep within his throat.

You're welcome 😊 Glad you enjoyed it.
Will never get bored of their chant. Amazing how they can sing all day and keep pitch perfect notes. One of my favourite birds.
Lol
Handsome birdy. My favourite.
I'm loving listening to the blackbirds in the morning, I have one who stands on the roof opposite singing the same lovely tune, beautiful birds
Ive played this in my garden and many blackbirds started calling with vigour....lovely ❤
I absolutely love the blackbirds singing.
Ive played this at dusk and a nearby blackbird answered with the same call! Amazing ❤
what a handsome fella,lovely bird
There is a lot of them in Prague. They are amazing. I love them.
This is wonderful footage and I could listen to him (or her) singing all day long :)

I live in Scotland, near a forest and you hear them all the time. Best sound ever!
All the time - lol!
Hello I was in Scotland last week . Glencoe west island way
@Julie Church the West Highland Way is a brilliant walk, hope you enjoyed it.
Thankyou for the beautiful video. Such delightful sounds they make, and to see him up close and personal is perfect.
These birds make the funniest sounds when they take off lol.
Really sounds like a troll obnoxious laughter
Wonderful male serenade :)
I wait for my lift in the dark listening to this. It's beautiful
Great Sounds!
This attracted 20+ black birds to my feeder xD
I love listening to hm tryn to beat the other birds I’m the loudest and tis is my patch Every morning and evening Tis is wat it’s all bout bringing joy just by singing
No better sound than a blackbird singing in the spring
Every morning I wake up to this song.. beautiful
Today I saw one of them in a village, in Turkey. He was adorable...
Basically in bird talk he's telling his other bird mates to get their ass out of bed, it's morning time!
he's beautiful I love him.

The song of this bird is so comfortable that it seems to fall into an eternal sleep .

A wonderful sound often heard on on a mild summer evening. So very English.
You know they can be found at the borders of Scotland and Northern Island?
