    Those little goons aggro easy. Any time you walk by a field where they’re nesting they start circling you and squeaking and making a ruckus.

      The wiki article about them makes them sound like a giant gang. It says packs of males basically patrol around together looking for other animals to get into fights with.

      It also said only the males are the black ones with the flashy wings. The lady blackbirds just look like some random brown bird. I hadn’t known that before.
