Blackbird info please

Can anyone tell me when the mating season of a blackbird is?

At this very moment the usual male visitor to our garden is perched on a post and seems to be displaying. He hasn't had a successful brood this year, and has only had two attempts that I know of.

According to the RSPB website the breeding season is between early March to late June, although weather can alter the breeding times. Have a look of their site, it's got quite a lot of info The RSPB: Blackbird: Breeding
