Blackbird


Blackbird

"Our" blackbird singing for his sultanas first week in December about 9 in the morning. He often comes indoors and "asks" too! Must be several generations down the line as they only live for about 3 years.

I have been feeding generations of blackbirds in my garden also. I had to remove 2 old nesting positions very close to my windows as the male kept flying into the glass or twice flying into my house, the subsequent panic produced splattered guano everywhere :-(
