Anymore Kiwi?
Today I discovered that blackbirds love kiwis. Rather than put an overripe fruit in the food waste bin, I thought I'd put it under the bird feeder and see what happens.
Within minutes the father and one of his chicks were ripping it to pieces. My favourite little fledgeling stood politely next to the greedy birds, waiting to be given a morsel or two.
A few seconds later, he/she darted across the lawn towards me and sat on a pot underneath the open window, where I was hiding behind the curtain. He was a bit too close to get him in focus but I couldn't resist letting you see him and how well he is developing.
The extra photo was taken of the two eating the kiwi, with my little bird, on the right, standing watching.
