Blackbird

He had just found a worm for breakfast (on the grass in front of him ) He soon swallowed it whole before flying away !
A damp dreary morning today -- very fine drizzly rain that really gets you wet !!

[Annie D]

that's a bloody big worm hahahahaha

[Arthur Loosley]

Nicd capture Beryl, but I'll settle for cornflakes for mine this morning!

[Beryl Lloyd]

@wordpixman Ha ha !! me too -- just had my" fruit and fibre" !!

[Maggiemae]

It looks as if he was scared you would grab it before he had time to fly away with it? Great focus on a bird!

[Pat Knowles]

Fine drizzle today too Beryl......this was the day when I was going down the fields to get THE photo of the year...haha! Good to encourage blackbirds.

[Colin Fawsett]

They are friendly little birds. When I've been mowing the lawn ,one would follow me looking for disturbed worms. A lovely capture Beryl.

[Babs]

Wow, that is one huge breakfast I am surprised he could fly after eating that.

I just hate fine drizzle it really gets into your bones. I lived in Lancashire for a few years and it was always damp and drizzle there.

[Hazel]

A nice shot and I'm glad the blackbird was not put off its breakfast!!

[Pyrrhula]

Beautiful capture of this nice bird. His Dutch name = Merel. ( love his singing)

[Beryl Lloyd]

@pyrrhula What a lovely name in Dutch In Welsh its Aderyn du --an actual translation of bird black !!

[Beryl Lloyd]

@barneyone So true Rita ! at home in mid Wales we call it glaw mynydd (mountain rain )

[Pyrrhula]

@beryl His/her name come`s from his Latin name : merula .
Dutch girls can also have this name .

Great focus on the blackbird's eye.
