Beautiful pictures - but the title: "Frog and Blackbird" sound like a country pub!  ;)

Great pics, for ages i thought that i didn't like blackbirds but that was untill i realised that them big black birds that sit up in the trees making a racket are not actually blackbirds lol

Love the blackbird pics. The blackbirds that visit my garden have got so tame the last few days, they don't even move when the dog is in the garden, well not until she chases them.

I love watching Blackbirds, the way they turn their heads to 'listen' for worms, or at least I think they're listening, maybe they are just watching.  We have about 6 that regularly use our garden.  Most of the time they are quite tolerant of each other, but we do get the odd fight breaking out, seems that they are pretty territorial.
