Blackbird singing contest, victory for Victor


This video is called Song and calls of the Blackbird.

The contest for the most beautifully singing blackbird in the Netherlands has been won by blackbird Victor in Driebergen village.

He got 1,050 votes, more than the two other contestants in the final round.

You can hear all three of them here.

Victor will get a kilogram of biological raisins and a birdbath. And Dutch singer/songwriter Ellen ten Damme will write a song about him.
