11:00 | The Blackbird has caught two Smooth Newts from the garden pond within an hour - luckily there are plenty. Both were killed by repeated vicious stabbing to the head before the bird flew off with them, as if to a nest. The bird returns frequently to the pond searching for more, but sometimes makes do with pond snails. Photo uploaded to gallery. | |||
