blue's coloured thursdays - black

This colour-linked meme is challenging and fun. Thank you to the organiser! To see more for this week's blacks please click here.

A Magpie about to land on the bird feeder

 Crows visit the feeders too . . .
. . . and so do Blackbirds . . .
. . . and Great Spotted Woodpeckers . . .
. . . but the Labradors prefer different treats!

    Of course, I love that Magpie! We had two big yellow labs while raising the kids. I miss them terribly. Their such great dogs.

    I envy your ability to capture birds. I try and fail frequently! But, my personal favorite is the dogs. Just looking at their backs, my dog Willie could be one of them. ;)

    Your photos of birds are wonderful. I especially liked the Magpie. The wings are thrilling to see.
