endlessraritiesHe's back!
After he disappeared in a flurry of feathers following a terrible fight with another blackbird on the 12th May, there's been no sign of my resident tame blackbird.
Today, I went out to feed the birds this morning and a scrawny, scruffy male blackbird zoomed to the ground as I filled the feeder. He was there again when I came home from work, mooching in his old familiar way.
And, as I was watering the plants, no sooner had I been summoned in for dinner when I heard a scratch of claws and there he was, sitting on the fence, waiting expectantly for his dose of fruity nibbles. Naturally, I had to delay my own tea while I saw to the needs of my resident feathered f(r)iend.
He's been fed five times today, by myself on three occasions, twice by my husband. Running after such a demanding bird is a pain, but I'm delighted to see him again.
The garden just hasn't been the same without him!
