We have a pair of blackbirds who chose to build their nest in our log store, sheltered from the elements it's ideal, & we get to watch them from our kitchen window. The camera securely mounted on a tripod, fitted with 70-200mm lens, & Wi-Fi remote control I can retire to the house. Chicks (3) first seen 3rd April - ↓ ↓ - This morning 9th April, & the nest is getting a little crowded as they take turns to stretch their wings. Any noise and they hunker down, but their beaks/bills are still visible. Dad is constantly returning with grubs, and worms, not seen mum this morning though.
