Blackbird & House Sparrow

Also on the same pathway at Mereshead as the Yellow hammers featured in my previous post there were numerous Blackbirds. I have seen fairly large numbers of these birds in places this autumn and think certainly the British population has been increased by migrant birds.





I also liked this House Sparrow with the lichen on the twigs.

Lovely series of shots Mike – the first in particular is an excellent capture – and so good to see so much lichen – a sure sign of a healthy natural environment.

Brown birds, but they still make great photographs Mike.
