Chick newsflash

Chick newsflash – we fledged FOUR!! Our first two chicks left the nesting box at 6.38am. Both parents were in and out and then they started tempting their young out of the hole using food. One and two plopped out together. Ten minutes later the parents came back for number three. And at 7.22am they came back a final time and coaxed their fourth chick out into the world. There are no feathers or any signs of drama so we have decided that everything went perfectly and four new blue tits have entered the world! We’re not saying this is definitely one of ours, but this little fella was found down at the golf club on Court Road this afternoon. He’s being very well guarded. And you never know do you!!
