WING STRETCHING

It's been a few days since I last updated this blog, but a stomach bug has affected the adults in our house, meaning most of my time has been sent either being ill or playing nurse!

The good news is the bug has finished its work and the even better news is the great tit chicks are bursting out of the nest.

Below are images that show how big the chicks have grown since Friday night. But first the video taken from today showing just how much of the nest the chicks have taken up.



Despite the damp and cool weather the parents have done very well and although I can't tell if all eight chicks have survived, I'm hoping when they fledge in the next few days to find out.
