Time to go
May 19th, 2009 by Chris
The blue tit chicks all fledged at around 7.00am this morning, 20 days after hatching. That’s a day longer in the nest than last year, but still four days earlier as the eggs hatched 5 days earlier than in 2008.
A good few of them seemed rather reticent to go, but they all got the hang of it in the end. Interestingly, the parents carried on cleaning up after the chicks had gone. Could they be working up to a second brood?
