Saw this baby blackbird in the garden earlier. It's very hot today and it just plonked itself down and started doing this sunbathing/cooling off behaviour...
Laid down and fanned out wings.

beautiful photos of that lovely bird Mac.Once you know that it is its way of cooling off it takes away the worry that it is hurt

Lovely pics sumac! Have just put similar pics on my blog, of a male blackbird. I was really worried about it yesterday, but now everyone has explained what he's doing, i can relax! Came again today, was there all afternoon! Bless!karen x
ReplyDeleteHad the same experience last year Sue and being the complete novice at that time I thought the poor bird was dying, such a lot to learn hey lol
