Blackbirds

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird fly Blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

These hatchlings have been born to a nice warm corner of a greenhouse and are looking close to spreading their wings. But for the moment it looks quite cosy in there - I managed to take this picture flashless, raising just the camera up to the level of the nest and taking a quick snap to see how these youngsters were faring ~ quite well from the looks of it....
