Dammit!I was wondering where that plastic bag went. 
 I might give her a break and close the blinds so she does'n have to look at me all day.

watching at 6:00am Washington time - One eaglet took his/her first step outside the nest (might have had a few more during the night while I was sleeping). A small step for bird, one giant leap for birdkind.

It was like The Battle Of Britain here during the week as male and female blackbird chased a magpie through the skies. The magpie eventually landed on my next door neighbour's roof and the two blackbirds landed nearby giving out loads to the magpie who eventually flew off and peace was restored.
May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride.

They are close to takeoff but I think the other one is hiding on the tree somewhere. Almost 3 months now since hatching. It seemed like my little robins were in the air within a week of being out of their shells.

Now it's late June and the blackbird's seem to have stopped singing.

Is it they have found a mate?

Saw the first of the overwintering Light-bellied Brent Geese on The Seafront this morning . Looks like the weather may be on the change .
