Blackbird

I am a nature lover and a keen garden bird watcher. I have been inspired by the feathered visitors to my garden to make a series of bird portraits.

One of my favourite visitors to the garden is the Blackbird. They love fruit and I have several regular visiting Blackbirds who return to my garden throughout the day to enthusiastically partake of the delicious apples I provide. 

I love the song of this beautiful graceful bird, a joyful and optimistic call. This is a male, as it is altogether more dark in appearance while the female is rather more brown and mottled, but both have the brightly coloured beak and eye make up.
