Back on March 1st I took photos of the pair of Kestrels in Regent's Park (first two photos are from that thread). It appears that they have been busy since then and they have five, possibly six youngsters who are ready to fledge. I took rather too many photos while I was there and managed one of Mum exiting the box, though how they all managed to fit in there is beyond me. The box is leaning to one side and I think it's easy to see why! They are a comical bunch, that's for sure.
Let's sneak a peek while those two are asleep
Look what you did, you woke them up, now if you would just shift it...
That's better, now I want to see what's going on out there. Just ignore me, nothing going on here...
If you two would just budge up a bit, maybe I could...
Tada!
A well behaved little trio
That's it, nice and tranquil
That didn't last long
No point trying to sleep through all this
Gerroutofit!
Such an unruly group!
This is worse than a school photo!
Come on guys, sort it out!
Really?!
Looks like a little game of tug-o-war is going on here!
Move along...
Room for one more?
Where's the grub then?
Room Service aka Mum
Quietly waiting for the upcoming snack...
Food delivery made and a quick exit is in order!
Awaiting the next snack...
