Think they are about ready to leave the nest. They are bursting out of it. The nest is at my front door. 6 of them, one is behind.

;D ;D

Wonderful shot- love their colored markings.
Cannot imagine how busy their parents must be finding food for all those mouths!

Aw nice Lorna. I do appreciate your comments,makes it worthwhile putting pics on A4A cos I know you will pass a nice comment. Thanks.

I keep having a look out the door at the little uns, only need to open the door an inch and I can watch the parents come in with food. Not long to go now or they leave the nest. Wonder if the 2nd brood will be in that nest too.

;) ;)

Thanks everyone for your kind comments on the picture.

The birds are now flying around but come back to roost at night. OH has hosed the area down and got rid of some of the mess, but if they roost there well the mess continues.........
