It depends on which species of blackbird you are referring to. The Eurasian Blackbird is a species of thrush with the scientific nameTurdus merula.

In the New World, however, "blackbird" refers to the family Icteridae which includes New World Blackbirds, New World orioles, the Bobolink, meadowlarks, grackles, cowbirds, oropendolas, and caciques.
