A compound word is formed by combining two or more separate words to create a new word with its own distinct meaning. To determine which word is a compound word between "blackbird," "blackness," and "blacker," we need to analyze the structure of each word.

- "Blackbird" is a compound word because it combines the words "black" (referring to the color) and "bird" (referring to a flying creature). Therefore, the answer is not A.
- "Blackness" is not a compound word because it is a single word that represents the state or quality of being black. Hence, it is not a compound word, and the answer is not B.
- "Blacker" is not a compound word either. Although it is derived from the word "black" and refers to a greater degree of darkness, it is not formed by combining two separate words. Hence, the answer is not C.

Therefore, none of the given options are compound words.
