BLACKBIRDS

[Jacksparrow]

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.

Has been sitting there for ages every day lately - near the small bird bath

I just dont know where they are.

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

Keep up the good work Placi . The youngsters out in the countryside are not so lucky.

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

Point it towards the countryside as there are tons of ripe Blackberries awaiting it's attention at present.

Yes I think so, Jacksparrow. They're all off on their country hols.
