Blackbird Turdus merula

Blackbird by Jill Pakenham

Another ubiquitous bird of town and garden, farmland and forest. Gaps in the Blackbird maps will probably be more indicative of where people haven't visited yet, so why not help plug the gaps. You never know what else you might find.

Note that the 2007-11 maps (below left) reflect only records submitted so far online . We will update these with records from paper forms at the end of each fieldwork season. Check back soon to see how the picture develops. And why not take part and help fill the gaps.
