It was a thrush, beating the living daylights out of a snail. You can see the remnants on the ground to the left, and a morsel in the bird&#39;s beak. If you want to encourage thrushes &#8211; they are good at keeping the snail population down &#8211; make sure you have some large stones or slabs around the garden. <\/p>\n<p>Next up is one of the photos from around the same time in the afternoon. It reminds me of the pictures I got of Blondie, the cub who visited for much of last year.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/05\/cubs_140506008sm.jpg\" alt=\"cubs_140506008sm\" width=\"550\" height=\"412\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18772\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/05\/cubs_140506008sm.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/05\/cubs_140506008sm-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"aligncenter\">As indeed does this one taken later in the evening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/05\/cubs_140506050sm.jpg\" alt=\"cubs_140506050sm\" width=\"550\" height=\"412\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18773\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/05\/cubs_140506050sm.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-content\/uploads\/2006\/05\/cubs_140506050sm-300x224.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 80%\"><span class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/picofday.html\" target=\"_blank\">Fox Cub of the Day<\/a><br \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[980,4],"tags":[33,1142,1128,55],"class_list":["post-650","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-birds-2","category-foxes","tag-birds","tag-cub","tag-fox","tag-thrush","entry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/650","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=650"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/650\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=650"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=650"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.permuted.org.uk\/photography\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=650"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
