Hi,
Should great tit fledglings be able to fly as soon as they have left the nest?
One of ours has decided to jump ship at 7:30pm.
He is currently on the ground fluttering his wings but unable to fly. Just about managed to get upright.
Magpies are swirling around, Im holding them off for now, but if I leave this little guy he will be dinner pretty soon.
The parents are continuing to feed the other chicks in the box but the little dude isnt getting any attention. Shall I just leave be?
