The Blackbird

 

We have a few Blackbirds that fly into our garden feeding on the bird food we put out. One of them has become quite tame coming right up to you. All the photos were taken on my iphone

The first two photos were taken by my wife with my phone. This is the female sat on the fence waiting to be fed it comes up quite close

 And it loves grapes



Today I set up my iphone on the gorilla pod and sat in the house watching on my watch where I took the following shots remotely. I put a few raisins out hoping the female would come along, she does sit at the door and look in expectingly. After a while her mate came down

And decided he wanted to have a few

 
Collecting them in his beak before flying off
I'm going to have to try this again
Take care

  7. Lovely! We feed them in the garden, but our little dog loves to chase them (but they keep coming back all the time).
