Blackbirds

There have been plenty of Blackbirds around recently. Lots of them doing some gardening by turning and flipping over the dead leaves on the lawns and beneath hedgerows. Of course, they could be foraging for a meal, which I'm sure they are, but it's always fun to watch them do it. If only they could afford a rake. It would be much more efficient and save them an awful lot of time.

  5. Nice shots of a charming bird! I feel so sorry for the ones that chose to spend the whole cold winter near our garden. They really are migratory birds, which should traveling to warmer climes during winter.We feed them regularely.
