Since returning home again and watching the birds in the garden it is now obvious how productive the area is for local species. Fledglings of all the common birds are everywhere. A young Robin even joins us on the outside table especially if we are enjoying a snack.

Of the more unusual young Great Spotted Woodpeckers have turned up on the nut feeder during the last couple of days and young Goldfinches are on the niger feeder. I have not seen the latter here in our 10 years before. More predictable are young Siskins coming in droves now with their parents.

Nuthatches are collecting food in a frenzy just now and I would expect their fledglings to appear soon.
