I guess we get used to having these around, the Mistle Thrushes seem to be quiet while they have young around, but they could be singing in the early hours and I wouldn't hear it.

Today the blackbirds didn't appear when I opened the door but did later when Straypuss came for his food, they know when they are likely to get food. He didn't want very much, but the blackbirds were getting impatient.

Last year I was taking pics from the window when they tried to get the food, today I decided they weren't going to take any notice of me anyway so I went outside with the camera. They ignored me as usual, and between them were surrounding Straypuss. I wanted to see them dart in to take food but he went too soon!
