Thrush chick update

The box is empty, except for a good deal of bird poo! Both adult thrushes are flying out together and the chicks have fledged. The thrushes are feeding in the shrubs and around the garden.

Well done for bringing the family back together again. So glad they have fledged successfully. How lucky you are to have resident thrushes. We had several - about 3 or 4 - during the very bad weather, when it was snowing, and I was hoping that they would stay, but unfortunately they moved on when the weather changed!

These are the first thrushes I have seen in our garden for 15 years. It is wonderful not to have to hunt for snails to protect the veg patch.
