Graceful male Blackbird (Turdus merula)

Garden birds from the hide, birds are in short supply in the Fens Cambridgeshire and the best way to get good shots are in the garden for me.

Love trying to get their lives as close as possible, often around 4-8 feet, it's fun and I get to watch their silly ways.

Common male Blackbird in early spring.
