Red-Winged Blackbird Looking Sleek

Colourful and noisy these are abundant in the reeds and grasses around the pond. Alternate view of the same bird here https://365project.org/gardencat/this-and-that/2017-04-09

Interesting, without the sun hitting the red and his gaze directed away, he now looks like just second tier noble.
