Male Yellow-headed Blackbird Trying to Attract a Female





I am always waiting for the arrival of Blackbirds. The male display are fun to see and hear.  They arrive first in the early spring to choose their territory and the wait for females begins. 


The male has to work hard to attract the female because it's she who will choose a mate, and not otherwise.  










The male in the photo above sings with all his heart, hoping that some female will like his song.

Some people call these songs ugly and bizarre, weird and hilarious, but the female Yellow-headed Blackbird finds them irresistible.

Life goes on.
