Food Fishing

MrQ always throws a few pellets down for Jazzy when he feeds the fish. She snaffles them up. She's a bit jealous of our koi, Barry, Maureen and Peter, getting attention and this treat takes the edge off it. :)

Our resident female blackbird got in on the act and came back repeatedly this afternoon for as many pellets she could cram into her beak at once. I'm a bit concerned that they might be too dry to feed to her young in this hot weather. I hope she found lots of juicy caterpillars to wash them down with.
