Pretty good bird, kind of overdoing it on the color based naming scheme, 7/10 would bird again.
There are always tons of them in a field behind my house, so I’m just kind of used to seeing them back there. But they have a nice song, and it’s always amusing watching them land on a tall strand of reed or prairie grass and seeing it bob back and forth in a comically slow arc.
They’re neat but could shut up more. I’m trying to listen to a cardinal make laser noises and suddenly one of those dudes REEEEEs right near me.
Thankyou for the mental image
Kinda rude to name the entire species after the appearance of only one gender
I haven’t lived in their range for a long time, but I’ve always liked them. They look great, (if I remember correctly) their singing is pretty nice too.
I wish they’d pick a color. I don’t care which one.
This is the first time I’ve ever thought about them.
I like the colouring on them. Easy to identify
They’s an alright bird I spose
I like them! There’s a nice little Canadian folk song about them too
