Baby Blackbird

This baby was on our lawn with his mum this afternoon. She was busy collecting worms for him and he was hopping around picking up his own bugs. I didn't realise baby blackbirds were so speckled. (I hope our cat doesn't get him!)

Never would have thought that to be a blackbird. Great shot.

@yorkshirekiwi Maybe "distant" relatives. It seems to be bird photo season and there's lots of babies around at the moment.
