Lovely stuff. Thankfully I broke the curse at RSPB St Aidan's last Saturday!

What a great advert for attracting nature even if you don't have a garden!

Would it work to put the pot on a tray and fill that with water to keep the soil wet?

Have bred in Sheffield so I'm told!

Lobbying for that to be recognised as the new collective noun for them

Thank you Colin!

Better luck next time on my search though...

I never posted the details on my Norwegian Blackbird 🇳🇴

Ringed on the 18th of March 2023, at the bird observatory on Store Færder island in southern Norway.

Caught by me on the 6th of December 2024, in north Derbyshire!

It's an adult bird - in that it was hatched in a year before this one. I think that's what you mean by 2k?

This one was a female based on her larger measurements. She was also a bird hatched this spring due to the white tips on her tail feathers and her more pointed feathers.

Excellent stuff. There's a couple of pairs in Nottingham now!

Interesting. Maybe they're nesting elsewhere nearby!
