Blackbird's nest!

My partner was just about to strim the top of the hedge that runs up the side to the garage, when a very annoyed blackbird started ticking him off. The pair have built a nest in the privet just in front of the garage door. It's a very sheltered spot beneath the perspex canopy that runs up the side, and you can just see Mrs Blackbird's beak as she stuffs caterpillars into the open beaks in the nest. I hope I shall be able to get a photo without disturbing the family.

Didn't they nest there last year?
