Blackie in Bush (Turdus merula)

Female Blackbird outside my Patio doors, taken TTW

In case your wondering why I have not been on here recently it is because my wife is not at all well. She started off on 9th March by tripping up the bottom of the stairs and head-banging the wall, chipping a bone in the neck, a neck brace was fitted. On Good Friday she fell again because the right arm and leg where not working, taken into hospital and found that she had suffered Two Strokes. Now being treated in the Stroke Ward at Derby Royal.
Hopefully I should be back sometime soon, we shall see, in the meantime Happy Birding my Forum Friends. Sorry I haven't time to comment on your Photos,
