June (Page 1) 2010        

 
The first of Honey's eggs on the 31st May at 13.45

 

Honey as usual with these birds consumes the egg shell
 
 
The first time we get a good look at the first little chick

 

Honey nips out and picks up a bug for the chick to eat, which it does, amazingly straight away

 

 

 
The second chick hatches at 4.06 the same day

 

 
Both chicks look very strong and healthy

 

 

 
Honey consumes this egg shell also

 

 
9.30 the following day, the first of June and four chicks have now hatched

 

 
 
By 10.06 only two eggs remain to hatch

 

At midday the following day the situation remains the same

 

 
 
Finally the 3rd June and all seven chicks have hatched

 

The next day the forth of June and all seven chicks are well fed and healthy

 

 
 
Honey nips out for breakfast at 4 49am.

 

This is a good picture of the last chick born looking quite hungry, but very much alive

 

 
 
The 1st June and the four Blackbird chicks are starting to get their feathers

 

This is them on the 5th June such a change, looking like true birds now

 

 
 
Later the same day, look how they can stretch their necks

 

The male Blackbird is quite tame, and will feed from a box held out by us, this has proved to be somewhat troublesome. This Blackbird now expects the food and will happily walk in through the house, to the lounge. Once the bird is sure he has caught our eye he flies back out and wait's for food

 

 
 
This is the last shot today of these well fed chicks, only about 8 days to go now and they will leave the nest
