Michael Hunter in his report on a visit to Paris mentioned that he wished his Blackbirds at home sang as well as the French ones that he heard.

I moved to Australia from the UK 10 years ago and have yet to hear a Blackbird sing anywhere close to as well as I was used to back in the "old country".

Their song over here just never seems to really get going.I've asked a few Aussies who've said that yes they do sing well here,but they haven't heard an English Blackbird in full song. The question is why?

Are they longing for home?!
