"Blackbird Singing In The Dead Of Night"

It wasn't actually the dead of night but 9.30 pm. I hauled myself off the sofa where I had be languishing all day, eyes and nose running, head aching, throat rasping and coughing constantly. I got a pic of a boring bug just outside the back door and was about to come back in and collapse on the sofa when I heard the fledgling blackbird calling to its parents.

I didn't change the lens or the settings of the camera. I got this of the male using my macro lens and the in-camera flash. Also got quite a good one of the fledgling but I already had my title in mind. :)
