Baby birds all over

[thunder]

This morning had the pleasure of watching baby Blue Tits and baby Great Tits being fed by their parents, and baby Great Spotted Woodpecker feeding him (her) self - all on the bird feeder just four feet from the window. Excellent day!

hi

What a great start to the day. Its so good to hear success stories when so many tragically end in diaster (normallydown to cats). I opened my bedroom window and ther was mum blue tit and her 2 babies sitting on the washing line. She went off to the feeders and fed them. They soon were amongst the trees making a right fuss about nothing (like they do). Its the blackbirds i feel for. My resident pair have had two unsuccessful nests. Killed a few days before fledging. Very sad so thank you for sharing your good news. Debbie

It's a lovely time of year isn't it? I spotted a baby chaffinch being fed by it's dad yesterday, didn't realise they do a wiggly waggle dance to beg for food rather than wing flapping (like sparrows), it was so sweet .
