Common Blackbird female (Turdus merula)

I love this one, this is a female Blackbird.

Please look at my website bobswildlife.co.uk, look under 'Guest Photos', by Peter M Beesley, it's wonderful. I have a new links page on my website, if you want me to add your blog or website, please contact me.  We are still working on the site, with many new galleries to come over the next few weeks. Any feedback would be much appreciated.

  5. Wow. Great photos. In general, blackbirds go away when I try to take photographs of them.

  6. Hi Bob! Blackbird is a mysterious bird. It bounces and flies low by trees and bushes in the midst. Often you can see it running crouched in the bushes below. It's like hiding it after making something prohibited;-) Greetings

  24. I bet nine out of ten photographs one sees of this species are of males, so thanks for bringing us a female.
