It is the mountain equivalent of the closely related common blackbird, and breeds in gullies, rocky areas or scree slopes.

Other lines that may refer to Baez are a line describing her as "an artist" and a reference to being a "walking antique", which may be a reference to Baez' desire to keep Dylan writing protest songs but could easily be a compliment.
