April (Page 12) 2009

Meanwhile in box 2 incubation is progressing

A steady flow of food is being supplied by Agro

A brief show of the eggs, still 10

Strange goings on in box 1 again, with another bird doing nest wiggles, but no further action

Ester the nester does a bit of begging for Agro, who has turned out so far to be a good provider

The four little Robins have survived so far, this one has taken to hiding during the day near the hedgehog box

This looks a tasty treat for any young lady, at least if you are a bird

This compressed video shows the feeding of a complete day in box 2, quite interesting, if I say so myself

The little Robin in the far left corner, tries to feed its self, but Mum still supplements with what she can find

The Robin likes to repeat ably jump up through the logs on the right, at the back of this picture, and onto the tunnel of the hog box

From there it jumps off, and does a trial glide with its short little wings, you can almost hear it shout weeeeeeeeeeeee

Here is Mum on her usual perch on the end of our washing line, she calls to the chicks

The little Robin answers Mums call a fraction of a second later, she is on the hunt for more food for them, good old Mum
