On my last trip to the cementary where I took several picture of squirrels I also found some birds that where flying and running around there. One of the birds that often walks instead of flies is the blackbird. A male was looking for insects on the floor between all the leaves and I lied down in the forrest floor and took several pictures of it. The blackbird is one of the more common birds here in Austria and it has a very nice song. I really like listening to its song in spring and summer. Now in Winter you barely hear it singing. But since it is a really friendly bird you can get pretty close to it without it leaving.
I was happy that I found some birds the day before yesterday becaue of the New Years celebration I already heard several fireworks exploxe all over the city eventhough they forbid it and it was still afternoon. But this place is a little bit away from the city center so you only heard sometimes some explosions in the distance, I really thought I have visited the spot for nothing but to my luck the distant explosions didn't bother the birds too much to not show them.
