Dad returns with dinner
We have a blackbirds nest at the bottom of the garden and the parents keep going in & out of the bushes with food.
The father stop to check the coast was clear before visiting the nest.

Excellent shot Ken. Beautiful detail.
I noticed today blackbirds tend to stick their rear out. Does anyone know why they do that?
