I have been away for a few days but my daughter has been keeping an eye on the feeders etc. She says the Starling fledglings have been arriving over the weekend but two of them have been killed by the Sprawk!
Such a same
it seems that their fledglings have been decimated this year , both by cats and sparrowhawks

About this time every year I have a pair of fledgling Jackdaws. The nest is in a chimney about 5 doors away. The parent birds are with me most of the year. This year there are three fledglings and they are pillaging the fat balls.

That's lovely JS , jackdaws fledglings are so cute, with their blue eyes and being so clumsy
. I am still waiting to see any of them in my garden
