If Merlin is incorrect, I’d love if the experts on here could identify. Thanks so much!

      To me it looks pretty good for red-winged blackbird, do you hear them around there? They have a very distinct call

        We have seen and heard them, but I was surprised how different the females look compared to the males

        Looks like red-winged to me as well.

        Thank you so much! My spouse and I tried the Merlin app, and got hooked on the birds around our neighborhood. We’re in the Southington / Farmington area.
