I get really quasi-parental with 'my' chicks in the garden. I'm sure others do, too. Can't help feeling responsibility for them, and really wanting to see them succeed.

Lovely nest panad I'm very jealous. Especially since our neighbours chopped their border down last year and we've lost our local nesting site. We seem to now be right in the middle of a turf war.

Everyone who does have garden nests keep the updates coming, love hearing about them

I am indeed feeling very parental - i cleared&dug over a patch of garden earlier so that mr&mrs blackbird could find plenty worms and grubs for them, and I don’t know when they normally start venturing from the nest, but I hope they realise it’s not happening this side of Christmas...:-)
