The Living Forest (133) : Blackbird

Winter is a hard time for birds living in the large forest, far away from feeding tables in the neighbourhood of human settlements.

This male Blackbird was desperately seeking for earthworms (his favourite dinner) during snowfall, but unfortunately for the blackbird, earthworms hibernate !

Dutch name : Merel
German name : Amsel
Latin name : Turdus merula

    Una grande tenerezza e una bellissima ripresa,
    stupendo il candore della neve che contrasta con il colore del merlo!
    Ciao, Mauro

    They hibernate? Did not know that. Well please tell the blackbird he can fly here. Here the earthworms are all awake and making thousands of little heaps on my lawn

    L'inverno è un periodo duro per loro, specie quanto è particolarmente rigido e nevoso e hanno difficoltà per procurarsi il cibo.
    Fanno molta tenerezza, così al freddo,vederli beccare e cercare tra la neve.
    Ciao Mark, buona giornata.

    Ja daar sta ik bij stil dat de dieren het in de natuur niet gemakkelijk hebben gehad bij dit winterweer. Gelukkig wordt et wat warmer, maar ja de regen moeten we er dan wel bij nemen.
    Prachtige foto, Mark !!
    Bij deze gelegenheid wens ik je een gelukkig nieuwjaar, goede gezondheid en veeeele mooie foto's !!
    Groetjes, Gisèle
