A reminder of spring

A reminder of spring (Turdus merula)

The best I could get from 56 yards.

My ever helpful brother is taking me to the dentist shortly. Hopefully the problem can be fixed today, we'll be in full lockdown here from Thursday.

Thank you for your comments on my pictures, stay safe and well, and good birding!

Beautiful Blackbird in full voice John..... I have a Blackbird here every morning and the song is just great, they don't usually come this far out of town so I'm lucky he and she have chosen my place to call home :).....thanks for sharing!
Good luck with the dentist and the lockdown, stay safe!

Oh how wonderful!! At least the birds didn't miss out on Spring, did they John.

That's a marvellous picture you've taken of Mr Blackie in full song my friend. Very well done.

Hope you got your teeth sorted pretty painlessly lad. Hopefully dentists will be able to remain open this time round.
