Distribution
The Common Blackbird’s breeding range includes Europe, North Africa and a vast, discontinuous area extending east to eastern China and south to Sri Lanka. Following the introduction of the nominate form, it is also found in southeastern Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand and several smaller islands. In the western Palearctic, the Common Blackbird has a very extensive distribution, representing more than 50% of its overall range. To the south, its range extends to the Maghreb and the Nile Delta. Over the past century, it has colonized the Faroe Islands, Cyprus and Egypt, with its range continuing to expand. In addition, since the nineteenth century, it has begun to inhabit most European cities. In most cases, its wintering range coincides with the southernmost and westernmost parts of its breeding range; the only exceptions are some parts of North Africa and a rather extensive area south of the Caspian Sea, which corresponds approximately to the territory of Iran.
