    turdus merula




    on this site you will find a recording of its call

    or look for this file (BlackbirdSongNe85023.wav) on this site

    also song on wikipedia [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Blackbird"]Common Blackbird - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/ame] although I had to download a different media player to listen to it.
