If Merlin is incorrect, I’d love if the experts on here could identify. Thanks so much!
What is your approximate location?
I’m in Central Connecticut, United States. The picture was taken yesterday afternoon
To me it looks pretty good for red-winged blackbird, do you hear them around there? They have a very distinct call
We have seen and heard them, but I was surprised how different the females look compared to the males
Central CT here, too. Great shot!
Who is Merlin?
Merlin is an app by Cornell that uses machines learning to try to identify birds by photos or recorded sounds. It’s pretty amazing. Here’s the link to the Android version.

Sweet, thanks!
I use Merlin, but for identifying birds using the sound ID feature. It’s amazing who’s around that you can hear but not see!
