fledglings

.... babies? We left the hide and followed the path to the shore, and there, on an old fence post sat these two adorable Welcome Swallow fledglings!! Adorable!

At least 4 of the House Sparrows are newly fledged. But as for the Starlings, some are from the original nests and are now getting some adult plumage, some are from the second batch and there's some newly fledged ones there too. Gawd.... my window does suffer at this time LOL TTTW

... at least I guess so, these appear to be all recently fledged! Someone's going to be busy feeding them, aren't they LOL

...the word must be spreading, the broods are now arriving in bunches

Looks like the work load is lightening for this pair of starlings

The beginning of May saw my first youngsters of the season. This mum House Sparrow arrived with three bairns and proceeded to feed them on the bits that I'd thrown out onto the shed roof. A lovely moment to watch TTTW
