Saturday Critters #587

It was a gloomy day but we were in the area of
Lake of the Lilies
and decided to take a drive around.
I could have sworn I heard the Red Winged Blackbird, but I was sure it was too soon in the season for them to have returned.
Driving a little further on, I heard it again....
could it be that they have returned to the lake and are singing their welcoming song to me?
They are here, and as always, I heard them before I saw them.
I saw 6 of the lovely birds, captured at least 50 images, and only have 2 pictures that are worth sharing.


The Red Winged BlackBirds are back.

And many thanks to my loving husband who gave me the flu!

Hello Debbie,
I love the Red-winged Blackbird photos. I have heard one here but I did not see it. Love the cute Sparrows and the Robin too.
I hope you feel better soon, take good care of yourself.
Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Have a great day and happy week ahead. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.

Oh the flu is no fun at all!
I have never seen a red wing black bird, they are pretty.
I have seen one robin so far always a good sign to see one.
feel better soon

There is nothing more beautiful than the sound of a red winged black bird. Great photos.

Love those blackbirds. They have returned to the island too, but we haven’t seen them yet. Great photos, as always, Debbie.

There is nothing like the song of the red-wing blackbird and the chirp of the robin to signify spring! Love your pictures!
