1. I have seen a kestrel flying over the Deptford gasworks, and I have heard a first-rate performance by a blackbird in the Euston Road.
我的目光曾追随一只红隼在德普津煤气厂上空盘旋，我也曾在尤斯顿路上聆听画眉鸟一流的歌喉。

2. In a world of precision-engineered digital cameras, the colorfully analog blackbird fly is a strange bird—one that took almost 15 years to hatch.
在这样一个高精密度数码相机的世界，像“飞翔燕子”这样的几乎酝酿了15年的照相机，算是很奇怪的一个了。

3. So the US turned the YF-12 into a reconnaissance plane (the amazing SR-71 blackbird, which remained in service through 1998 and could traverse the US coast to coast in 1 hour).
因此，美国最终把YF-12改成了侦察机（即令人赞叹的SR-71黑鸟。 它可以在一个小时内横穿美国东西海岸，直到1998年才退役）。
- blackbird (n.) late 15c. (late 13c. as a surname), from black (adj.) + bird (n.1). Originally in reference to a large species of European thrush, the male of which is wholly black; applied in the New World to other similar birds. OED says so called for being the only "black" (really dark brown) bird among the songbirds, reflecting an older sense of bird that did not include rooks, crows, or ravens.
