I know Ive changed!
We have a pond in our back yard and we always had a little waterfall there too and each year around this time, and actually during other bits of the year, a gorgeous male blackbird would come and visit and have a good old bath in that waterfall, it was really cute to watch because he would just dive in and go to town on himself lol
Anyway, whilst doing some maintainence of the yard the waterfall broke and we rigged up the pump etc just to have a little spout of water for now.
Anyway, the last few days this blackbird has been coming to the pond and looking totally put out that his bath has gone and has been hopping around the pond sides looking for ways to have his bath...he even tried hovering under the water spout for a moment but that didnt work.
I was convinced that it couldnt be the same one that keeps coming back and that I was putting human emotions into it by thinking it remembers the waterfall and wonders where it has gone, but after doing some research apparantley they have quite good memories, so its very conceivable that he is back and wondering what happened...God bless him.
So...sorry Mr Blackbird...I promise we will install something for you in spring or summer xxx
