About These Birds
Black-headed Nightingale-thrush
The Black-headed Nightingale-thrush is a medium-sized, secretive thrush with a black head, gray body, and bright orange bill and eye ring. It inhabits humid montane forests from Mexico through Guatemala and Honduras to Nicaragua, typically at elevations from 1,000 to 2,500 meters. It forages on the forest floor and in low undergrowth for fruits, berries, and invertebrates, producing a beautiful, melodious song.
Common Blackbird
The common blackbird is one of Europe's most familiar and best-loved songbirds, celebrated for its rich, fluting song delivered from rooftop and treetop perches at dawn and dusk. Originally a shy woodland bird, it has colonized urban environments over the past two centuries and become one of the most successful urban adapters.
