A couple for the weekend.

Category: My Garden Birds | Posted: Sat Jun 13, 2009 5:02 am

As I'm busy at a craft fair this weekend, I thought that I should add a couple of birds this time. The male and female Brewers Blackbird, as close as we can get to the UK blackbird.

They are lovely, but do look different from our blackbirds.

Yes I agree, they do look different. Have a great time at the fair Kildale!

Wow a male bird that has the same body shape as our Bleackbirds but with a Jackdaws eyes and the colouring on its feathers just like a Rooks. Now that's something special!!
The female is much paler than ours and she has black wing tips that ours don't have.

I hope you enjoy your time at the craft fair and that you take some photographs for us while you're there.

I dont' believe I've seen a blackbird that looks like these around here. they are not quite as round, more streamlined. I wonder if they are actually blackbirds then, after all? I'll have to research that.
