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.

They'll be more where that came from lol I'm only just appreciating the huge appetites of sparrows and starlings lol
A couple from my walk this morning, a distinctly unimpressed blackbird
and cygnets galore... not sure if it's the same ones as last walk, but probably a couple of miles apart if not more, by river route.... 3/4 mile as the swan flies :o)
Lot to learn
Todays latest addition!
