blackbird ~ turdus merula

honey bee? ~ apis melifera (Please correct me if I am wrong)

 

The blackbird is on the RSPB Green status list

 

This blackbird was visiting for a drink and was suddenly surprised by a thirsty bee. I am now leaving a puddle of water when I fill the birdbath regularly for insects as a few have drowned trying take a drink. That was a couple of days ago, first we had rain, then sleet and now we have snow.
