 | | A male red-winged blackbird [agelaius phoeniceus] posing on a cattail on a tributary of Village Creek in Roebuck Springs, Alabama. Perhaps the most abundant bird in North America, the red-winged blackbird population is estimated at 190 million. It is a highly polygynous species, with one male having up to 15 different females making nests in his territory, which it fiercely defends during the breeding season. The male vigorously keeps all other males out of the territory and defends the nests from predators, and will attack much larger animals, including horses and people. | |
