Are colly a new, now extinct species of Nope. Colly is merely an OId word for black or “like coal”. Who looks a little bit like a lump of coal? Our good friend, the common of course! The word colly was later adapted into “calling” in 1905.

And lucid, inescapable rhythms;
But I know, too,
That the blackbird is involved
In what I know

Back in early spring, I made a bunch of bird nest illustrations. Just drawing them was a lot of work - it's baffling birds build these things with no tools! Here's blackbird, hooded crow, robin and black-headed gull.

"Green finch and linnet bird,
Nightingale, blackbird,
How is it you sing?
How can you jubilate,
Sitting in cages,
Never taking wing?"
