Bluetit Diary    May 2007 (15)

 

 

Wednesday 16th May, 2007

Although we don't expect the chicks to fledge before Thursday, we left the computer running last night - just in case!

The camera in Box1 has just turned on and our six chicks are still there - and looking remarkably quiet for a change.

It's business as usual when food arrives!

This rather inelegant picture shows the frequent result of eating food at one end - a faecal sac from the other!

Another bout of wing flapping.

It's now nearly 8 pm and a chick is looking out of the nest box.  Surely it won't fledge this late in the day?

Of course it was much too sensible for that!
