Day 13 - Flaming June!

June already and it's hot, hot, hot! A couple more days like this and it'll all be over, and that'll be it for another summer. Probably.

The tiny blue tits are now officially cute! Well, I think they're cute from day one...

I'm battling with bad light mornings and some of the afternoon at the moment, so will only bother posting this one from early on - to show one of the youngsters out of the nest cup...

The black eye stripe feathers aren't yet fully grown. I think they look like eye masks at this stage...

Their head feathers are showing the distinctive soon-to-be-blue cap.


And it's still a never-ending round of hungry mouths...

And grumpy faces.

Mum, Dad and babies.

Ted

If you can make it out, Meg has just shoved one of the youngsters out during a routine round of enthusiastic housework. The baby is facing the bottom right corner of the picture.

A wing!

And a wing stretch!

Meg is still sleeping with the babies overnight, but at some stage this week they will be left alone for the first time. At the moment she's coming in at around 9:15pm.
