Wow, it's October already!  Where has the time gone?  Pretty soon winter will be here and the cold and blah.  Well, enough of that.  This is a male Redwing blackbird that I was able to photograph in Minnesota this June at a nature center in the reeds by a pond.  He was sitting there calling, most likely to the female who was also around.  It's about the closest I have ever gotten to one, they are very skittish birds.
