The Singing Blackbird

Blackbird, port of Livorno
This blackbird was singing loudly in a tree, inside the Porto Mediceo.

  3. We have a lot of them around the square where I live. THeir song is really nice. You also got an excellent shot of him/her. The eye is perfectly in focus - the way it should be!

  4. Such nice sharp photos.
    I wish a blackbird would pose for me.
    They just go "Caw" and fly away.
