Yellow-headed Blackbirds are black birds with golden-yellow heads. Adult males have white wing-patches and black masks.


Habitat:
During the breeding season, Yellow-headed Blackbirds can be found in large wetlands with emergent vegetation. Their habitat requirements are similar to those of Red-winged Blackbirds, but Yellow-headed Blackbirds require larger wetlands with deeper water. Red-winged Blackbirds are often seen with Yellow-headed Blackbirds. When the two do occur together, the larger Yellow-headed Blackbirds generally inhabit the center of the marsh, and the smaller Red-winged Blackbirds inhabit the periphery. In the non-breeding season, they can be found in open fields.

This was another one that I found to be a bit challenging, mainly because the sprinklers were running and my sense of directions was off by about 90 degrees. It was actually pretty easy to spot once I checked the right spot. TFTH.
