Blackbird Family

Well, dad and two of the three kids. One moved away just as I started to take photographs.

And so it went on for several minutes.

A short while later I spotted a Jackdaw in the same place:

Don't see those very often in my garden.

  1. I know there are nests where I live - I've been scolded enough - but not seen any hopping little youngsters.

    1. Simon: That family seems to be particularly early. The adults do believe in making their feeling known, loudly.

  2. Lovely series of photos. Saw two young blackbirds here last week being fed by mum :) Only ever seen one jackdaw here and that was earlier this year.
