I woke up this morning before my little girl which is very unuaual for me, my baby lay there fast asleep so I went down stairs after a quick shower and had a cup of tea.
we noticed behind my greenhouse about a few weeks ago a baby blackbird, its mother has a single white tail feather and was bringing it food whilst i was pottering round the garden. Ive watched them everyday and to day it was so nice to see them as the baby is now catching worms aswel as the mum,

Its hopping round twittering away to itself.pecking here and there and

Its almost as if the mother is saying “Yes dear now just eat your breakfast”

just reminded me of how much my little girl is growing and how fast.
and just how similar we are to wildlife no matter how feathery

will try and get some photos tomorrow as they flew off when I got hubbys camera
