I know a goldfinch as nico (plural nicos) & a blackbird as aderyn du (plural adar duon), but I’ve also heard people refer to a blackbird as mwyalchen (plural mwyalch)

I know nico for goldfinch and both aderyn du and mwyalchen for blackbird. That’s in the south of Gwynedd, in case the names are regional.
