Very pretty and unusual blackbird
Tony and I have just had a lovely walk in my beloved Fairydell. We had gone with the intention of gathering leaves to make leaf mould for next year and gathered six large sacks full. After putting them in the car boot we went for a walk around the park and through the woods. I adore this beautiful place and love the way it looks throughout the different seasons. As we headed for the park gate to return home I spotted the prettiest blackbird I have ever seen. Now when I say blackbird it is actually a very white and black blackbird. I wish my photo's were clearer but I didn't want to frighten it away.

How lovely, I have seen one with a bit of white in the wings but not anything like this.
ReplyDeleteWow...gorgeous! Birds are so special and beautiful. Their colors always look so perfect together. I base my yarn choices on their combinations, and what I see in irises.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photo, love seeing all birds. They used to say any black bird, like jackdaws, crows, blackbirds with white on them is from eating too much human food, whether thats true or not i don't know - probably just an old farmers tale!. On the farms over the years seen several with white in varying amounts. Emmax
