Gman68 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Saw a black bird at the feeder this morning (Cedar Hill, TX) with a yellow or light stripe on it's lower body. Is this just a red-winged black bird variant ? Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IKLland Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Looks like a slightly odd red winged blackbird. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonestranger Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Red-winged Blackbirds have yellow edging on the red patchs of their wings, @Gman68, sometimes showing only the yellow while the red is hidden under other feathers. They can show or hide the wing patch as desired so the colors aren't always as bold or noticable as they can be. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
