Again! Again! Again!........
.............as my baby granddaughter used to say to me when she was ready for another mouthful of food, she always used to remind me of a baby bird demanding to be fed. This poor old male chaffinch has been working very hard trying to feed the three chicks that follow him everywhere, shouting and fluttering to be fed. The male blackbird I blipped a few days ago is still feeding his two chicks and we now have baby sparrows and dunnocks as well, with the robin furiously collecting food and disappearing into the hedge. I even saw a female blackbird busy collecting nesting material, presumably doing some running repairs on the nest before producing another clutch.
They always seem to be doing something interesting at meal time, I'm getting used to burnt and/or cold food over the last few days because I have been too engrossed in getting photos.
