Sleeping Like A Baby - Blackbird

Mr and Mrs Blackie's eggs hatched a few days ago. I've been keeping well away but today I took a close peep at the nest while they were busy collecting food. As the nestlings were all fast asleep I used flash to reach into their ivy-clad home. They have a bit of fluff but their feathers are starting to form. MrQ and I are very protective of our birdie family. Jazzy will make sure cats keep away.  

I captured Mr yesterday with a beak full of worms. Mrs built the nest and has done all the incubating but now it's a team effort to feed their fast growing brood.
