Description
The Yellow-headed Blackbirds return to this secluded reed island in southern Minnesota where it mates and uses suspended nests deep down in the reeds often over open water. This is a classic pose as the birds sing their song like the sound of a screechy opening/closing farm gate, dramatically tossing their heads back over the shoulder.

Thanx for wading through the images Maria! I have waded through marshes, infested with wood ticks, woods filled with mosquito's, prairie's buzzing with flies and gnats to get reference images to paint these marvelous creatures with no regrets. Very happy you appreciate my efforts.
