Blackbird is a common name to refer to a member of the thrush family that is characterized by dark feathers. However, the ornithological world recognizes several species of blackbirds, including red-winged blackbirds, Brewer's blackbirds, and rusty blackbirds. Some birders may refer to these species as blackbirds, while others may add color to differentiate them. For instance, the red-winged blackbird is famous for their distinct red shoulder patches, while the Brewer's blackbird is brownish-black and has iridescent feathers. Other common synonyms for blackbird are merl, ouzel, and crow-blackbird. Some regions may also refer to them by their country of origin, such as the New Zealand blackbird.
