Fledgling Sunday - 16/06/2013

A lazy Sunday saw a total of nine Sparrows come to the garden today, the most by far we've had in at any one time sine we've been here. Several of them were new fledglings still begging for their parents to feed them whilst taking shelter in the bird house from the drizzle.

The second time they came in they were joined by a family of Blue Tit fledglings too, and for a few minutes the garden was a flurry of feathers, and the feeders saw the most attention they've had for months. A short walk around Forest Farm in the late afternoon was very quiet in comparison.
