Baby Blackbirds

Drama in the house today.

A fledgling Blackbird flew in the back door and straight into the window at the far end of the room. Falling to the ground immediately behind Buddy's bed. Luckily I was right there at the time, and Buddy is very well behaved.

The Blackbird was fine, and with help from Husband while I held onto Buddy (Hattie slept through it all as usual!), it was escorted back outside where it flew off.


Buddy's owners have a nesting blackbird in their wall, just opposite us. She has been sitting for a while, but now they have finally hatched. This is what four Baby Blackies look like. Not sure exactly when they hatched, but it must have been in the last couple of days.
