Redwing Blackbirds are nesting now here in KY. I saw this fledgling while on the walking track around our local park pond.
RWBB's favor nests near water, and often deep down in cattails, nearly impossible to see their nests. I did see one this spring that was at eye level pretty much in the open on a tree, but still right over water with cattails nearby.
