Continuing the theme from my previous post and as promised here are just a few images of the recently fledged Blue Tits that visited the garden feeder on Monday.
Even after the adult disappeared with four juveniles in tow, one youngster hung on for over twenty minutes and was constantly chirping in the hope of more food. Eventually it decided to fly off and find its siblings.
P.S. This brood DID NOT fledge from our nest box and it appears today that at least one adult is still visiting the box with whatever food it can find in-between the rain showers. I'll keep monitoring the nest box and let you know what, if anything, transpires. FAB.
Linking to WILD BIRD WEDNESDAY.

ReplyDeleteHi Everyone. Thanks for all your visits and complimentary words.
ReplyDeleteNesting Update: It now appears that OUR Blue Tits have left the nest today as I have seen at least three juveniles hiding in the Hawthorn and being fed this pm by the adults and one other helping itself on the seed feeder. Good news at long last.
Cheers ... FAB.
