The females are usually duller than the males. One of the most common UK birds, its mellow song is also a favourite.

Their weight also ranges between 1 and 4 oz., and some species weigh more than others. New World species lives across North, Central, and South America. There are also non-related Blackbirds throughout Eurasia, Africa, and Australia. Those birds in the Icteridae family live from Canada, throughout the United States and Mexico, into Central America.
