3rd January 2014 - I am in charge!! by pamknowler

3rd January 2014 - I am in charge!!

Mrs Blackbird came to call today and took over the tray of fresh mealworms I had just put out. She would not let my little robin anywhere near!! There is definitely a pecking order at the bird feeders!!

Best looked at large of course!!

Many thanks for all the wonderful comments and Favs on my ICM shot yesterday which got it onto the PP!! So pleased as it was my first successful go at ICM. I will be using the ICM again I think as I love the effect!!

Also thanks for the great comments on my swan taking off. I was pleased with the shot as I had to change settings at the last moment!!

I was unable to go out today as the pain in my heels has really flared up in the last couple of days so I am resting!! It's lucky the birds come to my feeder just outside the lounge window!!
Wow Pam. Your details captured in this photo are really remarkable -- nuances of color and tone and details in feathers. Wow -- fantastic and a fav! I hope your heel starts treating you with more respect soon!!

Love the expression here, I think she is listening. Poor you with your heels, mine is still really bad. I have to tiptoe around whenever I have sat for a while or in the morning. I think I have it for life now!

@lucypics @rosiekind @sansjuan Thank you Lucy, Rosie and Nita for your kind words about my feet. I appreciate your good wishes. I must say it has been getting me down a bit as i am finding it hard to walk Finlay very far. I am just lucky the birds come to my bird feeder every day!! The insoles seem to be agravating the problem rather than helping!!
