She sat completely unworried about my proximity which is why I could get such a close shot - but look what a gob-ful she has!!
Excellent, typical Blackbird, just keep collecting until things start falling out of their beak..gif "Smile")
I did find a dried out caterpillar on the side of my raised bed today in exactly the spot where Dad clambered over it yesterday - they do seem to waste a lot of time and energy that way
But the Blackbirds around here are very active. I have 2 nests within 12 feet on my garden and so both lots come through quite a bit.
The other day I was standing at the Kitchen window with both coming back and fore every few minutes with beaksful. The female always goes over one end of the fence, and since I cut the ivey back a bit on my side and made a bit of a gap at the top, the male always over the other end ... his is the shorter way
All these legs must feel tickly when they go down their throats!
Great shot, Louise!
Especially if they are are active little critters!Originally Posted by Catherine
