today's correctly named bird of the day is the red-winged blackbird! while this is most correct for the males, the females also occasionally exhibit (far duller) little red wing spots!

hello! welcome to correct bird names, a blog where i will be categorizing birds based off of how correct their name is as to their traits (physical and otherwise), and sharing them. main tags are #correct for correct bird names, #birding for my personal birding tag, and #incorrect for names that are so incorrect it's kind of too funny not to share them. this account is 100% for the purpose of sharing the joy of birds with others, and also for some laughs- if you personally believe a name is "incorrect", feel free to share your reasoning, but please remember this is a bird blog i run in my free time just for fun.
as for me, my name is cid, and i use he/him and it/its pronouns. please don't address me with they/them if you already know my pronouns! my favourite birds are the blackburnian warbler, painted bunting, and louisiana waterthrush.
i have been interested in birding as a hobby for years, and it's a tradition in my extended family to go on birdwatching outings to continue our life lists since i've been old enough to hold a book. i volunteered at an aviary for a few years, and have worked both owl and general census bandings! have basic knowledge of birds- above entry level i'd assume, but not extensive. if you'd ever like to share a nest fact or correct something i got a bit wrong on any of my posts, please feel free to share!
submissions are always open for the time being, i'll get to them as i clear the queue! also feel free to send asks! :>
