Show us ya birds !

Felix,

At first the mouse was accompagnied by a robin that was so afraid of the mouse that he kept quite a distance from him. While I was looking for my camera, the blackbird came and chased the robin away.

The mouse ignored the change of birds completely and the blackbird seemed to be too puzzled with this beviour to even consider attacking it while the mouse ran back and forth to its nesting hole to store the sunflower seeds available. This went on for more than ten minutes until the mouse had taken all the seeds as you can see in the first photo that was taken after the second.

In the following photo you can see how the blackbird even reacted disturbed on the sudden movements of the continuously returning mouse.

Great pictures, Gerrit, and totally the opposite behaviour from the birds than I would have expected.

Here's one from last year

We're lucky to have several pairs of these around us, if I dropped 3 spruce I think I could just about see a nest from my back garden.
