I also saw the Speckled Wood again earlier this year, it was around a lot tlast year. The first time I saw it it was OK, the second it had a piece out of it's wing.

I had seen a blackbird sneak up on it when it sat on the side of a pot I had waiting to go in the new bed, it darted just as it got to it and the blackbird was flying in the same jerky manner. It did escape but I haven't seen it since this shot, that was the of May
