Mrs Blackbird

I have another robin pic with the bird singingk. In fact I have a few but I thought I would save that for another day and post one of Mrs Blackbird who kindly perched on the fence for me. I cleaned my windows this morning as I couldn't focus due to the dirt! They are not really much better but I managed to get this pic. I've posted something quite different in my Even More album in case you get fed up of all my bird pics.

Best viewed large if you have the time
A pretty background and a great shot.

@busylady @landownunder @khirsch @streetlyend @esox @carolmw @sabanford Thank you - I do feed them with dried fruit sometimes raisins or sultanas or even mixed fruit. I also give them apples if they have gone bit soft. Blackbirds really like fruit especially when the ground is hard with frost

@rosiekind we feed the blackbirds wit apples as well, they love them, but we don't have that many blackbirds as we used to have- due to the fact that here in our area of Germany their number has been diminished by a tropical virus transmitted by mosquitos

@khirsch What a shame as we had 8 of them in the back garden alone. They seem more common these days and we hardly ever see a sparrow

@rosiekind we have quite a few sparrows in our garden, but not half as much as there were 6/7 years ago. I tink the living conditions for birds have disimproved in the last years. Its a pity. We have very few birds at our feeder. I think its due to the fact that they don't find places to breed anymore. That's why I love the bird shots so much, my substitute for not seeing them here :)

You have captured the lovely warm brown of her breast beautifully.
