I love Spring and all the photo opportunities it presents! I am having a good week with spotting fledglings. This Blackbird fledgling appeared to be very fresh out of the nest. Mum and Dad appeared to be very upset about something as I passed by so I went to investigate. I spotted the fledgling in a branch overhanging the brook which runs beside my home and on the opposite side of the brook was a cat...looking very interested! I chased the cat away and took these photos before leaving the family in peace so that Dad could feed the nice juicy worm in his beak to his offspring. In fact as I walked away I saw the little one hop onto a branch a little closer to its Dad...I expect he was wondering what all the fuss was about!
