Remember how, last week, we asked you to send in an observation of the Gray Catbird? Well, sadly, no one shared any observations with us! But here is another chance to be featured on our blog! Just submit an observation of the Red Winged blackbird below! The deadline for submissions is 12:01 AM ET on June 27th. The red winged Blackbird is a common sight in marshes across America. The males of this species are black, with a bright red patch of feathers on each wing. The females are brown. Red winged Blackbirds have a memorable call, which can be heard at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology's page about this bird: http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Red-winged_Blackbird/id Here are some photographs of the Red-Winged Blackbird: Thank you all for your submissions. Entry deadlines are now over! If you still wish to submit a bird observation, please submit it through the form in our "Exploring Birdlife" section. -Rose
