I will not have a cable for my laptop until next weekend, so in the meantime all images this week will still be of Ramsey but from older stock. You may notice my real name appears on them as these are my copyrighted images from my sales site. I will answer emails and comments as and when I can. Basically when I can get access via the and only internet cafe or my partners laptop, when it's free, which isn't that often.
This was an image I took of a mother blackbird and her 2 day old babies. They were nesting in a conifer right under the kitchen window. We kept an eye on them, warding off cats and sparrowhawks as the nest was quite low to the ground, and not that well covered. When the birds were a few days old we had 4 baby blackbirds hoping about the garden. Yes I photographed them, and they even posed showing me their best side.

Babooshka: Very nicely done with the capture in the nest.
A nice, snug little scene. they look as if you had told them "Ok, look into the camera now".
What a great photo...they are so cute! How lucky for you to watch them right under your window!
How nice they were so close that you could keep a protective watch over them!
I would have copy-righted that one, too! Folks, if you haven't clicked to enlarge it, you MUST. The details are just too wonderful to miss.
I'm impressed that mama bird let you come near - that must have taken a lot of patience on your part.
I love wildlife critters best.
Great photo.

Aww! I am releaved that they were just out of your kitchen window. I was trying to guess how you had taken this pic and imagined you on a ladder high in the tree, lol.
I'm doing the sky watch now and saw your beautiful shots but I love this shot of the birds and your flowers even more.
Drat the date it was taken - it is the quality that counts. And this one has it.
Amazing photo!
Imagine having to feed them every day. Great picture.
Oh...they are so lovely...

"Louis" has an easy reciped for pâte brisée.....
Great photo. I had a blackbird nesting outside my bedroom window in a bush. It was really interesting to see the chicks grow and finally fly the nest. I was so proud! :)
