I usually start this thread by cheating and having a pic of a baby Feral Pigeon that I have rescued. Not this year. Today, the first of the Little, Little HTR's arrived in the garden, right on schedule. It is currently in the flowering currant. Little HTR has been taking dozens of waxies to the nest and this morning I noticed him going via the flowering currant. I just had a little look and saw a fledgling in there.

I've still yet to see any young!
I'm assuming there are some around here!

Just a few from yesterday, wondering whether to jump in for a bath or not.
Go on I dare you
They opted for the wet grass, but it shouldn't be long before they partake of the proper thing.
Lot to learn

Thanks Gaynor, yes three weeks today we'll be vacating the rental in the countryside that we've been in since last July !! where does the time go ? Most of our household items and furniture are still in long term store so we won't be receiving those until we have those elusive carpets fitted ! Who would think something as simple as carpets could delay the chain of moving events lol It's like a chain link that has one piece broken in the middle so we can't move forward so to speak. However, the apartment is habitable enough to live in and we can get the necessary like lights, window blinds, etc, fitted once companies are fully back to work. We have water, light, power, INTERNET ! and appliances all installed so we'll survive in the short term lol
Funny, I can tell by your words that you are pretty keen to get there!!!!!!!!!!
A couple more of the Spadgers today....
This is the latest hatch by the look of them
Altogether Awwwwwwwww!!
How can you not take their photos?
One seems to be more on the ball, maybe spotted me through the window.
