Fledglings at last! (1 Viewer)

I was beginning to wonder if I was going to get any youngsters appearing in my garden, and now suddenly, they all come at once. Yesterday, there were the four baby bluetits (which have been back again today, really comical, I watched one begging to be fed by the wrong daddy - a great tit!) and also baby great tits, house sparrows, a siskin, and just now a baby blackbird.

I am so fearful for the young ones though, they are way to tame and unafraid, and those pesky cats are around, I just chased one out of the garden, which was hiding under a shrub. At least someone has put a collar on that one with a bell, not like the other thing that I saw running away with either a house sparrow or female chaffinch in its mouth the other day. |})|

Worth the wait songbird, :t:

I just took the attached pics not five minutes since. Went out to refill the feeders (for the third time today) and this little baby didn't move off the peanuts - he was trying so hard to get one - I was literally 6 inches away from him to take these, as my camera is only a cheapie and doesn't do good zoom. I could have touched him, bless. Like I say though, too tame for their own good, but still.....

Lovely pic's songbird, :clap: :t:
