Funny you should say that,I opened the side door to take the dogs out,and,I had to duck straight away,as a young Blackbird flew straight towards my face.As I ducked it flew past me and into the window at the back of the room.It must of been a suicide job,as,if I hadn't opened the door it would of flew right into it(and it is a solid door-no glass).As Foxdropper said though,it might of been being chased by a Sparrow hawk.................anyway the ferts loved it..............
I think your blackbird is a starling mate.
Sorry Para1 ,but,it is definitely a young Blackbird.....Tur
