Posted by Jeff (Pembroke Dock, Wales., United Kingdom) on 26 November 2009 in Animal & Insect.
I'm sat here and all I can smell is the Christmas cake baking in the oven and the aroma is driving me nuts..I just can't think about Blackbirds !Sorry!.
@jamesy: Roll on I love Christmas. :>)
@Alun: I might even save you a piece of cake.

@Anthony Morgan Lambert: No but Mr Blackbird prefers natures bounty..."Burnt bits" dont you dare say that in your Mams hearing i'll have to wait till Christmas same as always.

Your little blackbird is a beautiful little guy. They are prettier then our crows. Love that tree.

@Marion: The hen Blackbird is an insignificant brown bird but she must still be beautiful in his eyes.

You're smelling Christmas cake baking and over here we're smelling the early aromas of the big bird in the oven (a Tom Turkey). :D
This next weekend we'll begin to see the Christmas decorations appearing everywhere.

@Judy: There should be a law against putting up decorations too early,I get fed up with them by Christmas..But then i'm a grumpy old man. ;>)
