Song & Call Comparison
Common Blackbird
Arguably Britain's finest songster: rich, flute-like phrases with deep, mellow quality. Sings persistently at dusk. Alarm is a sharp 'chook-chook'. Song includes liquid 'pew' notes.
Downy Woodpecker
A sharp 'pik' or 'peek' contact call. Drums on resonant branches with a rapid, light tattoo — softer than larger woodpeckers. Also gives a high descending whinny 'keeer-keeer'.
Geographic Range & Migration

Europe, Asia, and North Africa. Introduced to Australia and New Zealand. Northern populations are migratory.
Downy Woodpecker
North America from Alaska and Canada south through the United States, excluding the arid Southwest.

About These Birds
Common Blackbird
유럽 찌르레기는 유럽에서 가장 친숙하고 사랑받는 명금 중 하나로, 수컷은 광택 있는 검은 깃털과 노란 눈 테두리, 노란 부리가 특징적이다. 풍부하고 유연한 노래로 유명하며 도심 정원부터 깊은 숲까지 광범위한 서식지에서 번성한다.
Downy Woodpecker
솜털딱따구리는 북아메리카에서 가장 작고 가장 널리 분포하는 딱따구리이다. 소형 체구 덕분에 더 큰 딱따구리가 접근할 수 없는 가는 나뭇가지와 잡초 줄기에서 먹이를 찾을 수 있다. 솜털딱따구리는 겨울에 혼종 무리에 합류하여 여러 종이 함께 포식자를 감시하는 이점을 얻는다.
