They fledged!

This precarious looking blackbird nest is outside my parents' house just in the passage to the right of the front door. They nested in this rambling rose which is so sparse of vegetation that dad blocked the passage off and they've been going 'the long way round' with the bins, etc for the past few weeks.

However, they all fledged. What a treat and a success!
