Hi,
I was clearing some Ivy from a building in my garden today, and came across a nest of 4 blackbirds.
I left the ivy immediately and in this respect, that which covers the nest still remains.
I took a quick snap incase needed for a post like this one and have left the area alone since.
I don't know a whole lot about nesting habits of birds and have previously been advised that disturbing anest could cause the caregiver to abandon it. Is anyone able to advise on the likelihood of this being the case?
A quick Google says we could expect not to see the caregiver often depending on age, and so I was wondering if anyone could confirm a probable age of the chicks in the below pic also?
Thanks!
