Female red-winged blackbird "blowin' in the wind" - she has a new nest close by.

A cardinal feeding her fledgling in Washington Grove, Maryland.

While the male Boat-tailed Grackles get attention for their glossy black plumage, the females with their brown plumage are beautiful too! Spotted this one perched in a branch tangle in the Everglades.

Yesssss! This is my #GreatCanadianBirdathon team! Now we have a tram logo, thank you @RovingOsprey!! LOVE the #femalebird focus! The name is from bird-nerdy nicknames for these two species. If you get it, you get it.

Hot take: female Red-winged Blackbirds are MORE beautiful than the males. #FemaleBirdAppreciation

They're also commonly misIDed by new birders because they look so different from the males (and they are UNDER-APPRECIATED!)

Show this #FemaleBird the love she deserves! 😍
