Mistle Thrush

[jacey]

I can't believe how much Beaky has grown in just a few days. The thrushes are thriving. Mum and Dad are still foraging and Baby Beak is getting huge.

And by this evening (Friday) he'd grown into this little bruiser (right)














Both Mum and Dad are taking it in turns to feed the chick. One arrives and the other flies off almost instantly as if the baton had been passed. Getting a photo of them all together is rare.

The nest seems to be very quiet today. Surely beaky can't have flown already?
