- The Music of Nature proudly presents "Red-winged Blackbird," a delicious video portrait of a male in full song. The Red-winged Blackbird is common across North America, breeding in marshes and meadows. Excited males puff out their red epaulets (shoulder pads) as they sing.

This is the sound of my childhood summers....
Mine too
Fishing on the pond.
Mine too. All summer fishing in our pond with them all around me. Loved it.
I thought the same thing. My grandparents house had Fields, pond and wood's around it. This song was a daily experience.
Same 🥰
I grew up on 250 of the best acres in the world. We had a pond, a stream, a cave, you name it. I'll never forget being 10 years old, sitting with a family of beavers all day while listening to the red winged blackbird.

That sounds heavenly!!
I never knew what bird mad that call. Until recently. Stupid conservation protecting certain birds have caused a massive population boom. And they're now nesting in non-wetland areas; in peoples front lawns and it dry parks.
Highly aggressive, they're literally attacking children and adults alike in parks and the backyard.
In Idaho our fish and game states they're abundant and common, but due to a migratory bird law they're "non-game protected". Sort of silly. Because now they're a complete nuisance worse than rats and mice.
@@jmitterii2 No, they are beautiful birds that must be protected
Amen
Nil Desperandum a fam of beavers? Wow how many? We watch a fam of 4 and those little engineers ( as I like to call them) are amazing. I know this is a video about the red wing blackbird and this is another beautiful creature that we love to watch and listen to while we’re waiting for the beavers to appear we have several areas that we watch where we have beavers and Beaver huts and I can’t wait for the Redwing blackbirds to come back some say they’re here now I haven’t heard one yet but I have heard some other spring bird calls and I don’t know how do identify them so I don’t know what they are I just know I hear them when it’s warmer this is too early winter hasn’t really appear to New England there’s no snow pack here there’s no snow at all so there’s nothing to melt I don’t think the ground is frozen I think the animals are confused we appear to be having an early spring in the middle of winter I just hope all the species can survive
a loud boy
Turtle Chef a good loud boy
Super loud boy
miles has entered the chat lol
I had to turn down the volume.
Super good loud boy
Love how they puff up when they sing. One of my favorite birds. Their song will always be nostalgic for me. 😍
So true!
What I particularly like about this video is the lack of background noise. Thank you for taking such care in the recording.
I wish this was an hour long loop.

He's extremely handsome - and he knows it!
It's 1967 & my first morning in Canada. I open the curtains to find exactly this outside. I'm hooked on birding - for life!
I definitely feel like I need to be out fishing listening to this sound.
My favourite bird call so nostalgic, makes me feel like I’m out fishing on a summer day back home in Canada.
Clearly the Red-wing Blackbird stirs something in the Soul for many of Us! I will forever and always Love the sound of these birds in particular. Memories of sunny days visiting my Grandparents farm will always include their song!
"The male's vibrant song sounds like conk-la-reee or oh-ka-leee." Nah, man, nah it doesn't, but I'm feelin' it.
I hear Yanny.
"Vote-for-meee" is all I hear 😂
Zip lol now I can’t unhear that
@@ASentientPlant Much more like it!
I miss these birds. I moved from Ontario to Alberta and miss their happy summertime trilling.
Ahhh, just the breath of summer I needed in the midst of all this ice and snow.
tell me about it.
Beautiful bird and sound. Reminds me of summer at home.
I work at a college and have to cross a bridge to get there. These wonderful birds hang out on the river’s edge in the reeds. I look forward to hearing their beautiful song as I cross the bridge. They sound like the tranquility of the beginning of a beautiful evening in the summer. The calls of these birds and the calls of Mourning Doves are my favorite bird calls. They both conjure up memories of warm summer evenings.
My grandfather once told me that every great man will hear the call of a Red-winged blackbird at one time in their life. i was in the car with him when i asked if he had heard one. he told me that no, he had yet to be blessed by this bird's call but he was not disappointed. instead he believed that the day when he heard the call would be the happiest of his life, and that this gave him hope for the future.
i mentioned we were talking in the car, if you are easily upsetted please do not feel the need to keep reading.
a drunk driver ran a stop sign while we went through the intersection and t-boned our car. the doctors said my grandfather likely would not live for more than two days, but he stayed in a coma for weeks. one day, in a desperate attempt to wake him, i played this video on his bedside. at the end of the video, exactly 3:27 pm, my grandfather passed away. my wife and brother said i imagined it, but i could have sworn i saw him smile as he passed.
Thank you for this video. you may not know how important things like this are until things like this happen.
I am so sorry for your loss Peter. I lost my dad this last day of February this year. Hugs to you.
Peter Schimpf, I'm sure your grandfather heard the beautiful birdcall before he passed. What a beautiful send off you gave him. ❤️
That gave me chills. And what a thoughtful, loving gesture to your beloved grandfather. I like to think that maybe that blackbird showed him the way to Heaven. God bless.
I am very sorry for your loss, peter. you did a very sweet thing and im so sure your grandfather is smiling down on you from heaven ❤
Peter Schimpf crying wow wasn’t Expecting it ...that was a very good thing that you did for your grandfather my sympathies rest in peace
One of my favorite bird calls.
such gorgeous birds with unique calls and sounds
Makes me cry. I grew up on a farm in Rosewell ID and it had a lovely creek running through it. I know live in rainy WA. I miss the birds tremendously. Not only th red wing but the doves, kill deers, chats and others. Thanks for the video!
all of those birds live in washington dumbass
They're pretty rambunctious, they try to run me off when I get near their tree. They'll follow you around a fuss at you until you leave their territory.
most bird song is pretty much males telling other ones to fuck off, which i think is hilarious.
Yes, I have had males actually chase me while running through their larger than expected territory during the spring.
If they're attacking you it's because there's a nest. Same with mockingbirds
Holy unknown zoybirds here's a suggestion gumbirds sweets ya then sings birds gf.dip with it's a black birds ways of sanctuary one they kybirdoh lol ya .
Used to fish in a small pond as a kid with them all over the cat tails nesting. Never bothered me once. Grew up with that sound every summer. Miss it as these birds don't seem to be around a much anymore.
Not sure if anyone mentioned it already, but the other sound in the back that's predominent is a Sora.
I think I'm hearing a yellowthroat in there too?
I had a swarm of these in my yard all day yesterday, filling up all the trees surrounding my property. It was so serene and beautiful, I could hear it inside all day.
There's just something I've always loved about red-winged blackbirds... the metallic buzz of their call and the tail-light like brilliance of their colors.
I wouldn't call them my spirit animal, they are more like guardians of my childhood memories.
I just was reading through the comments and see so many links to nostalgia... maybe there is something to it.
yes, that is exactly what they are for me.
Omg, taillights! I’ll never unsee it haha
When I hear this it reminds me of a childhood memory at my grandpa's farm. Laying on a trailer by the acorn tree in the pasture, or riding the 4wheeler through the woods to the other back pasture. That smell that lingered in the air from the trees and random wild honey suckle bushes. I miss those days, life was simpler then.
I've always heard this breathtaking beautiful sound and I would know I'm near a body of water. It's peaceful; surreal. Oh to be a bird and not have a care in the world 🕊
My childhood is peppered with seeing and listening to these beautiful birds. They are not abundant in my area anymore. But I am blessed to have one in my backyard right now. He is beautiful and he came right to the feeder, then sat on the fence near me, started chirping and sang his beautiful song. To say I felt honored is not enough.
My favorite bird call.
Easily
Mine too.
I have one in my back yard and he always does that sound when he introduces himself or shows his presence to me. He’s a really smart bird and recognizes faces and knows who offers food in my family
How?
@@Signal6000 what do you mean how
One of these landed on a tree near me and made a multitude of different calls including all of these before flying away. I felt like I'd been blessed.
The song of this bird was my favorite way to wake up in summer in NY state.
I've never seen such a vivid red! Thanks for the close up on this magnificent bird!
I would hear their song after a thunderstorm and it always made me smile
we have them at our bird feeder out back! i love listening to the different bird calls.....
it makes me cry to hear these songs... i live in a busy city and miss hearing these sweet boys in the illinois prairie
By Far The Best Bird Sound Ever.
These cute birds are at . Presqu'ile I hear them all the time and I never knew it was that bird that made that amazing noise~
I hear this birds call every day, I hear it in my house, while I'm walking, this is the sound of my soul.
I work at a golf course and I see a few of these birds everyday by the water , so I decided to look them up. They're so pretty! They remind me of the "Lemme Smash" bird lol.
Nothing like listening to these guys while canoeing in a river or a swamp
This reminds me of summer time at my favorite park.
Just moved to the country and needed to figure out what in the world that beautiful red and black bird was! Found it!! This video made my toddler laugh so much!
My second favorite bird, not just to listen to but also just to watch!
Their song is exquisite in nature. A group in a budding tree in a foggy Spring drizzle was one of the prettiest things I'be ever heard.
I heard this call while walking this morning. Thanks to Google and TH-cam, I now know what bird makes this beautiful sound. ☝☝
I grew up with a lake and woods in my backyard. Their call always enchanted me. I would sit outside and just listen and watch them.
I live right next to a marsh and we hear these all the time. It's a true sign of spring. I love it.
The red wing is one of my favorites
One of the early signs of spring,I feel alittle better when they return.
it makes me smile because i love the variety of beautiful creatures on this planet, but it also makes me sad because i know there are so many people that dont give a shit about animals or leaving them alone in nature
I love these birds they remind me of the Nevada desert ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ just beautiful!
Let me tell you what it means to find this bird call finally. I grew up in a suburb where I heard these birds as I walked to school in the morning. I loved it then but then I finished school and didn't hear it again and probably didn't remember them...until I heard them again almost 35yrs later and it suddenly took me back to that peaceful time walking in the brisk morning air to school. But I never knew what they looked like much less what they were called. I looked online. Every time I heard one I froze and stared at the trees trying to get a glimpse of it to find in a bird book. You hear about the crazy lady in the Target parking lot looking up into the trees? That was me. ☺️ It has taken me about 4 years since that memory came back to me to find out it's the red winged blackbird! And I am so happy to have that auditory memory of my happy childhood! Thank you!
I heard this bird call when I was a child walking to the Neskowin stables in Oregon. Recently I saw the bird in Colorado and my neighbor from Ohio knew the bird I described and showed me the RWBB online. It has deepened my
memories of growing up with my sisters and brothers in Neskowin, a delightful seaside town.
If you have an abundance of cattails , you will have beautiful redwing blackbirds , singing their hearts out.
Thanks for this...it is dead of winter weather and I miss these precious creatures...
Absolutely gorgeous. He really was giving it his all.
A classic sound of the 70's ❤
I love these guys they always come and say hi by the pond.
We have quite a few of these birds around my area during the spring/summer time, especially out by rivers. I even have several that love to nest just above where I walk alot. When I walk by, they dive-bomb me.
Warning: These birds are vicious during spring/summer and will not hesitate to defend their nests, even if you are just walking by. Still, gorgeous birds.
I moved to canada and learnt my lesson well🤣
@@davgar4241 Same! At first when it missed me I was like "Oh sorry for getting in your way." Then when it came at me again I was like "WHAT THE FU-" and ran all the way back home
One of my favorite birds , usually found where cattails and water exist .
Always the first sounds of spring 🙂
You know summer is on the way when you hear them, I love seeing them at my feeders. ✨
Thank you -- a favorite, esp. hearing multiple at once.
One of the loveliest sounds I've ever heard: in the rain in spring in Oregon. In the mist, a flock of about 20 all singing at the same time. Ohhh... unforgettable, perfect.
Brings back my childhood, spring is here! Redwing 😍
Here these all day long it's truly amazing
Love his voice and the way he looks around for a response.
I was raised on a farm and had a pond and several streams. I loved hearing the red winged black bird's sound. Brings back a lot of memories
They visit me where I live now out in the country. I'm 50 years old. I have not seen nor heard one since I was in first grade. They're beautiful!
I love how you can just search for "redwing blackbird sound" and you get to listen to a song that takes you back to summers gone by. Thanks to anyone who has thought to record it for our listening pleasure.
We hear this in SW Arizona each spring. My favorite springtime bird!
Brings back memories of me and my dad on our early morning hunts through the fields and marshes in the sixties. I miss those days with my dad.
Wow I never knew what bird made that sound. I would here in the summer as a kid. I always admired the sound. I see these birds mostly near the beach. They’re very pretty.
my boyfriend told me he saw a black bird with a red spot on our drive to the lake today and i finally found it! ive heard this call before but ive never actually seen one of these good boys before. i love you little red blackbird, funny how we saw you near a place called little red river :o)
this is the sound of summer in the country - I've heard these wonderful birds all my life. Just lovely, thank you :D
Growing up in central Ohio, this is the sound of my youth... playing with my friends in the creeks, fishing at the lake a few miles away, while hunting. It never dawned on me that the redwing blackbird sang a particular tune, calling the name of my best friend in the world, whom I met in 1965 in kindergarten, Bill McKeever... he got me started in fishing, hunting, and all things growing up.
Bill committed suicide in 2016, not leaving a note for the true reason or his location. His remains were found a month later, in his favorite deer and turkey woods, near our favorite squirrel woods. Now, when I hear the redwing blackbirds calling his name, I am heartbroken... yet, I smile a little.....
Great singing from that handsome rascal. I like the Marsh Wren adding his sound to the mix.
I would always hear these guys when I would be fishing, it’s such a great sound!
My favorite bird song. Reminds me of my childhood home. There was a swamp nearby and quiet, misty Sunday mornings were filled with this tune.
I saw at least 8 Red winged black birds this week in Calgary. My first time seeing and hearing them at very close range. So lovely and beautiful.
Lots of these beautiful birds up here in Saskatchewan.
Beautiful video clip! I LOVE when these birds come back because I know Spring is VERY near! Thanks for sharing!
Love their singing!! I have one that comes to my bird feeder every day. He is so vocal. I just tell him to tell me all about it! Just love their voices. ❤️
One of my favorite birds of summer...
We have these everywhere at my house. Beautiful birds, and they love my pond.
Aggh! I miss that sound SO much!
Upstate western ny.!
Now live in NC.
We have them here in NC too. Surprised you haven't been hearing them.
Saw a bunch of these birds yesterday in new development across from Town View. They were beautiful.
I love this bird. I take photos of this red-winged blackbird in Berkeley, California marina. It seems they make a roll-call when chirping and take turns to chirp.
Yeah i was just at that marina the other day.i love to hear them when i go to the delta in tracy or stockton
Here in the forests and lakes of Minnesota, this song is the first true herald of spring...
I live in northern Minnesota and these are my favorites. Wait every spring for them to arrive
I use this particular video to call in these birds. They love pecking at my Jam speaker that I place in my garden. It’s a hoot to watch them. And now that my ear is tuned to their calls I can identify them very easily. I heard these birds calling out yesterday (very warm day in SE MI) while I was outside doing things in my driveway. I cannot wait to put my speaker out and call in these birds again.
I'd heard these birds so often growing up, and I admit I didn't know what bird it was! Drove me crazy, until today I was walking along some wetlands nearby and managed to figure out it was the blackbird. Well, at least now I know! Came home and looked this up for confirmation, thanks! Wonderful memories.
Same. Always loved this song, but only today managed to spot the bird making it.
The beautiful sound of spring and my childhood. I hear this call and I’m 7 again 😊
When I go for my daily walk, I have a redwing blackbird follow me each time. He now recognizes me from other pedestrians and follows me instead of them. It's so fun to see him.
Beautiful video, and my cat's favorite movie!
Arif sk
Beautiful bird. I was so surprised on Wed to see three of these birds in my neighborhood. Absolutely beautiful
Thanks for this post! Now I know I can come here and listen whenever I need to hear this sweet song. As of yesterday, Apr 1st, the r/w Blackbirds are singing here in Shelburne, Ontario (Canada).
I love TH-cams that don't have any humans talking ☺ Very relaxing.
Whenever I go up into the mountains with my dad and uncles I always hear this bird near a lake
Pets aside, no other animals make me so happy like birds do. I even have six parakeets and they're my babies. When I walk outside and go to work and I'm met with a symphony of song birds and water/coastal birds it just makes me so happy.
I live in the St. Petersburg area and I think I saw one of these recently. The bird made different sounds than the birds I'm used to hearing in the area which made me notice him. They're beautiful birds..Thanks for sharing.
I grew up with this song and the flash of those brilliant red shoulders through cattails lining waterways. Still - at 70 years - one of my favorite sounds
We have these in our area, and I always wondered what kind of bird they were. Their call is so unique and interesting!
