Blackbird ,daffodils ...and that white stuff again !!

I stood for ages in the conservatory this morning trying to get a decent shot of Mr Blackbird ,while he hopped around for ever and a day ! I think he was as annoyed as I was in seeing the snow again & was desperately trying to find a tasty morsel amongst the dead leaves & snow !! After numerous useless shots , this was about the best
I got !! Better viewed LARGE !!

Well worth your wait. Such a nice variety of colour against the white of the snow.

I love blackbirds, such a fat black body & yellow beak & then that glorious singing! Brave daffodils too among yet more snow! Poor birds, they must be fed up with the weather too!

A great shot, despite what you think, Beryl!

[Rick Schies]

How nice, and so much points to Spring

[Mary Karczynski]

Very pretty!! What patience you have!! Great photo!!

[Huda Morcos]

Beautiful capture that looks like a portrait, certainly worth the effort.

@thresheg @happypat @carolb @digitalrn @mak2 @hudamor - thank you all for looking in & for your kind comments . The snow continued all day yesterday , all night & is still coming down thick & fast-- no hope to see my poor daffs today !!

I know how much you wait for spring to arrive, just left snowy Sweden behind and came back to Shanghai in full bloom! Love your picture!

@gunilla_nyborg thanks for your kind comment & for your follow .

So very pretty! I have snow covered as deep as your tallest daffidol. Do imagine they are up and the snow falls daily. Glad to see your spring.

[Beryl Lloyd]

@kbuehl Thanks KJ --this was yesterday !! --we have had continuous snow yesterday all night & today so by now there is no trace of my daffodils !! they will surely be bruised & battered when we see them again !!

[Alison Tomlin]

Ah the confusion that is British spring! Lovely shot though

[Beryl Lloyd]

@fueast Thank you Alison, British Spring !! --so unpredictable , thank goodness I can stay in the warmth it's the animals I feel sorry for especially the new born lambs

[Malc Bird]

Lovely shot Beryl - I really like all the different colours against the snow :)

[Beryl Lloyd]

@malc Thanks Malc , you always notice pots & things that are left lying around when you take a photo don't you !!
