Another brood of Wrens fledged this morning. Amusing little birds, clearly just out of the nest and aviation is a bit of a struggle for them!  Rain came and curtained their antics.

 

This one took refuge in a Laurel. You can make out the juvenile gape and a few remaining downy feathers.

We get a wren in the lean to most evenings, comes in and looks round all the eaves for insects then either get comfortable or leaves. When the young ones fligged they all came in with her and they were hopping into everything looking for the way back out till I opened the door for them.

They do get into everything. My kitchen door is open most of the summer and found one recently fledged Wren  in my kitchen last week :).

Heading South... Large flocks of Swallows and House Martins on the way south over the last week.

 

There's a Silver Birch in the garden which seems to be a favourite place to have a rest and quick preen before resuming their journey, so took a few snaps. Here's one of the many.
