Last year, Monkey cheese started the thread off for 2020, the link is here:
https://community.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/f/all-creatures/207284/the-young-of-2020
As 2021 is progressing, and there are young out there, I couldn't see 2021 thread, so I hope MC or anyone else doesn't mind, I'll start the 2021 thread. if there is one already, please correct me and place the link in a reply.

I know that feeling
Its when that grey becomes a shiny fleshy coloured patch, otherwise known as bald!
Hi All,
A few youngsters seen on a day out at Minsmere yesterday.
A pair Ringed Plovers.
Male Stonechat nearly in adult plumage.
On one path we encountered this troupe of Swans, they appear to have emerged from one lagoon and were having a long walk along the path towards us looking for some fresh open water, quite a challenge with the reeds so high at this time of year.
They eventually headed into the reeds opposite where we were standing towards where I assume they thought they might find open water.
Follow me, it's somewhere down here.
A little bit further.
This looks like the way.
Or is it over there?
Here we go.
Hope they're right.
Wait for me.
They didn't come back so they must have found what they where looking for.
Best Wishes,
Trevor

Lot to learn
I thought this one was a juvenile Robin at first, but then noticed the tail to suggest it as a Redstart. This seemed to be confirmed by a parent that I saw nearby shortly after
