This blackbird was only 6 feet away from me and was not at all bothered. It must be the mating season!!

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

---It must be the mating season!!---

Although I think that you're right, Raj, there's perhaps another reason. I see the same behaviour of blackbirds in the garden of my wife. The parent blackbirds that are born there and are searching now for food now for their 'kids' aren't shy at all. They accept my presence till (aprox.) a distance of 2 metres.

Very fine post!

Regards, Cornelius

Blackbirds are one of my favorite birds. They sing beautiful in summer evenings.

The Blackbirds here are also brave as well as bold. Nice one Raj.

Nice job Raj, Sometimes I can get close to the critters at the feeders, but just put a camera in my hands, and just watch them fly away! :) Tigs♥ =^..^=

It looks very calm and you got a very nice close up shot.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
