Our blackbirds <i>Turdus merulaare</i> are generally solitary and very territorial. We have starlings which gather in huge gregarious flocks though.Graham Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196744947133121475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784891745623390957.post-10891916522517630182013-08-15T23:47:26.604+01:002013-08-15T23:47:26.604+01:00Thanks Monica.

My desk is in front of the window but my computer is on a special table of its own (for best possible ergonomics) along one of the other walls. My best view (although not as good as yours) is from the kitchen too.DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784891745623390957.post-34463319700945015632013-08-15T13:47:33.672+01:002013-08-15T13:47:33.672+01:00Hmm, looking at that blackbird I wonder if he'...Hmm, looking at that blackbird I wonder if he'd prefer to bathe in a warm pool....<br />I have now moved my office and have a view of a wonderful green tree and the street, and it gets afternoon sun when there is any.
