Blackbird youngster (no.6)

June 14, 2011 in blackbird, updates

Blackbird youngster (no.6), originally uploaded by Laura Whitehead.

This youngster has a great personality, quite feisty and independent already. He/she is already doing a great job weeding out my flower beds and gaps in the path in search of tasty worms.

The other five youngsters all appeared within a close batch of time, and this one a while after. (…and this week we already have the second broods starting to appear already).

Tony is a naturalist and environmental artist. Laura is a free range creative web and print designer. We've recently moved from the village of Ipplepen to the town of Newton Abbot with our two children Ralph and Oli, our dog Henry, and numerous cats (none of whom would ever dream of eating birds).
