Blackbird Fledgling In The Rain

A very dull and wet afternoon yesterday didn't prevent this youngster from going out exploring! I first heard and then spotted him on my neighbours shed roof. After standing up there making a bit of a fuss and being ignored by his parents he finally decided to come over to my garden to have a look around. As I sat under my back porch to shelter from the rain I was given the once over before he decided I posed no threat. Then down he came to take a look around. Of course I don't really know if it's a boy or a girl...but in my mind it's a boy and I've named him Colombus!

 

I have uploaded two sets of pictures and a short film which shows him exploring the garden :)
