A fledgling Blackie has appeared this afternoon. One of the parents is looking after it but it looks like any proper flight looks is out of the question. I hope the night time moggies don't find it.

Have a pair of blackies feeding nestlings still. Getting rather desperate and the suet pellets seem to be a godsend.

Visit from a blackbird !! Nibbling some suet pellets - think it was just for old times' sake.
