Fledgling

Today's the day .......................... to wobble

Remember that song thrush I posted the other day?  Well - meet the new member of the family.

At this stage, of course, they haven't learnt to stay clear of humans (or anything else for that matter) so I just about stepped on him/her before I realised.  And they don't have any proper tail feathers yet to help with navigation, so it was good luck rather than judgement that got him to the top of the rhododendron bush.  He perched there for a while before wobbling off down the garden. 

Oh dear, I hope it all doesn't end in tears .......................
