15.6.12 Baby Great Tit


15.6.12 Baby Great Tit

He/she looks bedraggled but it was pouring rain until just before I got this photo. I took it and went round the corner because I could hear an obviously very anxious parent up on the pergola. The great tits and sparrows fought it out for possession of this particular bird box. It was a new one bought in. My OH only makes blue tit or smaller sized holes in the ones he makes. By the time I came back they had both disappeared.

That's a great shot, SG. You can even see the black stripe down his/her middle. This weather is hard on these babies.

There have been no signs of any feathers flying so I think she has escaped. ??? Yorkshire and Melchisedec do you mean the mother bird.

Sorry Scotsgran - I think we are referring to the unwanted correspondent who was sending inappropriate messages. (At least - I think that's what we're referring to - it's all getting a bit confusing because as soon as a message is flagged, it immediately disappears!))

sorry scotsgran, no a load of us had another weirdo on yesterday and we all flagged her so you must have missed it, you know one of those looking for love, she would have been on here on your photo that is what our comment was about,

The boys are very good at getting rid of these people and yes I did miss it.
