5.20am, talk about early risers. They must have that Friday feeling βΊοΈ
π€£ππ€£ππ€£ you know this is true haha
I'm like but what if they can't fly on the first attempt, it's a big drop from box to concrete floor π
They literally are ready to flee the best, 3 weeks tomorrow. I've got a camera on the outside of the. Ox ready to try catch their first flight :)
π that was my response too haha was like ewwww, okay, cool, but ewwwww.
I sent it my cousin at first, was like what did I just see that bird take out that birds mouth, she then sent it her mum who was like, that ain't no mouth π
I'm glad and I'm I am good now thanks :)
Lmao one of the most bizarre things I've witnessed was this yesterday - I did not know birds pulled the poo out of their chicks bums π apparently because chicks don't drink much water - the mother has to assist π parental dedication is that!
It's getting a little cramped in there π
Fast forward two weeks
Early days of the chicks.
Hey you :) hope you're okay :)
Sorry not shared any updates for a while been poorly last few weeks. I'll whack some video updates on this thread later/tomorrow! πβπ»οΈ
It's an absolute pleasure :) it's been nice sharing them :) the last chick hatched this morning :)
5 beautiful baby Great Tits hatched today and a few visits by Dad :)

It's amazing to watch - I'm like a child with excitement ππΊ :)
She's laid 6 eggs, how cute is it that daddy Great Tit just swings by with some grub for the mother to be :)

Well, after a an extensive investigation.... π the 1st Tit in the box is not my resident Tit, mainly because it couldn't fit through the hole, but then she came in 2nd behind to defend within 2 seconds and overall she kicked his ass. Unfortunately though I don't know which bird is now the box lmao!π
Shit got serious in the bird box today π
@nach0patronus.bsky.social
ππππ I don't think they hit it off in the end because he hasn't been back since lmao! I mean it is entirely possible she has been going around to his gaff instead LOL
Good question, now I'm just assuming but I think this is her mating friend
and I think her leaving was part of that process, they both left the box literally seconds after he came in, she came back later on this evening. So I'm assuming he'll be back for Netflix and chill at some point π
One in.
One out.

@nach0patronus.bsky.social
It must have been because he didn't want my bird box upstaging his bird box πππ
Sorry for late reply I seen your post but forgot to reply. Seems OP has blocked the post but I did see it :)
Hey :) it's very similar, this is mine. The appears hole is much smaller on mine and the bottom of the box just has the 4 corners chopped put so poop can fall out instead of the mesh. Although spider webs seem to block those holes so nothing falls through anyway π
As Pete Hegseth answers questions from the armed services committee, we thought weβd share this op ed from combat veterans Senator Duckworth and Senator Kelly outlining why he is not qualified to be Defense Secretary.

The radicalisation of much of the right in Britain far exceeds that of the left under Corbyn. (I say that as a staunch critic of Corbyn).
It's essential that decent Conservatives speak out, if they don't want the likes of Cummings, Oakeshott and Jenrick to prostitute their tradition to an arsonist.
The best advice I can give is to tell my story.
The best advice I can receive is to listen other peoples stories.
We all have a story to tell.
