I stepped out of the front door and saw a flurry of movement in the ivy out of the corner of my eye. Accompanied by wild chirping, a baby blackbird was hopping around, probably taking his first flying lesson from mom. Just as I spotted him, one of the parents swooped down with an worm in its beak and landed directly between me and the baby. It landed on the closest possible branch to me, no more than one metre away from my face and I was quite startled by its braveness. I assume it saw me as a threat and was attempting to attract my attention away from the baby. With worm in mouth it gave a single chirp, at which point the baby instantly stopped chirping and sat down perfectly still on the ground. The parent flew off immediately. I flew off too, only to get my camera. The little guy did a great job of not moving and it took me a couple of minutes to spot him again before I could get this shot.
