Do you remember our little bluetit chicks? Well they're not so little now, as big as their parents (make sure your sound is on!) If you want to see them come to the Boathouse, but be quick, they'll be gone in a day or two :D

Remember when our little bluetit chicks were first hatched? That was 10 days ago.
(yes, only 10 days!)

Don't leave it too long! They'll be gone in a fortnight :)

Plenty of swallows flying around this afternoon, so how nice to see one visiting our swallow camera! :)

A change-over of parents means feeding time for the chicks! The chicks must beg for food to show they are hungry. Notice how much smaller little Chick 3 is compared to the other two.
(if you have sound, turn it on to hear the deep croaking of the adults as they greet each other, followed by the cheep-cheep sound of the chicks, then the unbelievable racket made by the geese!)

It was a bit windy in Nest 10 today!

The first little chick has arrived on camera today, 19th March, just before 8am!
