They fill the nest, mum is working her butt off feeding them, but they have survived all four. So pleased they are amazing, when you go and peek at them they open up their huge beaks - not visiting too often though don't want them to die.

They have flown away today and I missed it, too busy shopping. Hope they are ok. Not seen them yet but am hoping the adults are feeding them well. Lots of baby blackbirds flitting around in the garden today begging to be fed. What a racket they can make. I will keep my fingers crossed for tomorrow, maybe mum will bring them and feed them in the garden.

What an amazing sight, so they've fledged already. I wish them well.

they fledge the following day, well they disappeared so I presume they fledged, but have not seen them since or the adults so I am a bit concerned that a stoat or weasle got them. They were not very high up in the tree as you can see. I keep looking, been all around our field this morning, no sightings yet, but there is a field over the driveway which used to be farmed but isn't any more just gone to seed and wild plants now so she could have them all in there, it is a bit of a haven for wild life.

Oh Wow, they are so cute. I expect they are safe O/Oil, Mum will make sure of that, its surprising how well they look after them, and always seem to know where they are.
