young blackbird


the first young blackbird of the year, fatter than its parents, and very thrush like revealing the blackbird's close relationship with the thrush family (and very early). For a close up see this picture from last year (link)

the annual lamb photograph; someone obviously has a black sheep in the family.

this is very probably the same buzzard as before (same telegraph pole, same time), no fantasy this time but an honest photo.
