I was surprised this morning to see a FEMALE Red-Winged Blackbird scratching for spilled seed under a feeder. My understanding has been that the males arrive first in early spring, usually in large flocks, and claim territories. It is only later that the females arrive. Has anyone else noticed female Red-wings yet?

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Female Red-winged Blackbird
I hade two Red-winged Blackbirds, a male and female, at my feeders last week. In the past, I only saw males. The females came later.
