Redwing Blackbirds

Redwing blackbirds make a sound like no other, 
it electric and alive.
It's a cawing and a trilling and a clicking and it's loud.
I'm sure it makes the bird so proud to have such volume in a crowd.

It's the male that makes the sound
and I've heard that is is master of a harem
and that voice is meant to scare um or perhaps
his song is all the rage.
either way it works and makes the swamp a concert stage.

I love the redwing voices trilling in the spring.
There's a power in their singing
like no other avian being.
