This little fellow was catching some rays on our tomato planter on the front deck (last year it was a chilli planter* but the winter was far too cold). After a while he popped into the planter and had a dig around, emerging every few minutes to keep an eye out.
It really surprised me to see him there as the planter box is only about 3ft long and 1-1/2ft wide. I guess it's a signal that our compost must be full of tasty bugs. http://www.multi.net.nz/blackbird/ K10D, F*300 f/4.5, 1/250th at f/9.5, shot through a double glazed window that should be washed. This is straight out of the camera except for a resize as I don't have much in the way of processing tools on the laptop. * If anyone wants a recipe for a delicious tomato & jalapaƱo relish, let me know and I might dig it up when I get back from Aus. It also works well with Thai Super chillies if you want a bit more punch.
