If You Had To Guess My Name by Debra Martz
.....what do you think it would be? In many instances, it is amazing how much different the female birds look when compared to the male. And this is one of those instances. She looks nothing like what you would expect with a name like Red-Winged Blackbird! She is often confused with marsh loving sparrows. Some markings to look for are the yellowish tinge of the lores, chin and throat, the pale eyebrow with a dark eye streak and the heavily streaked underparts which continue all the way to the undertail coverts.
