www.birdsandblooms.com/birding/christmas-birds "Have you ever noticed how many gifts in 'The 12 Days of Christmas' are birds? Discover fun facts about the festive Christmas birds in the carol. With the holidays approaching, it’s time to sing all our favorite carols—”Deck the Halls,” “Silver Bells,” “Let it Snow,” and more. Birders, especially, might enjoy “The 12 Days of Christmas.” After all, many of the gifts are our feathered friends! Here, we’re delving a little deeper to learn all about the song’s delightful Christmas birds...." My notes: Most of us know the song. But do you know what the birds actually look like?

I had no idea what most of the birds looked like Zandra and they are beautiful especially the Gold Ring one.

I knew them all except the Red-winged blackbird, we have plain blackbirds in Ireland, but what a beautiful bird the red-winged blackbird is and never seen one before.
