The Wrens Nest

 

My post with the critters you might have taken some notice of the little wren chicks looking out of the nest. Well I set up a wild like camera and here are some photos of when went on.

You can see them in the photos which for my liking was a bit far away at first

So I moved the camera much to my wife horror as she thought I had put it a bit close

The chicks were poking their heads out in this cropped photo

as it got dark one of the parents came along with food

they were hungry little things

Getting fed

still hungry

I got my camera out with zoom lens and took a few more photos

There are always two heads poking out, I counted three in there when they ducked back in

I found this one a bit odd as the parent came along and did not feed them

They were actually encouraging them to fledge and take flight. This one did come out and then went back in. The video I took on the wild life camera shows the parent feeding again but after that the chicks must have fledged as when my wife checked when she went to the greenhouse they were gone. I had hoped the camera would have caught this but they are quick so I missed seeing this.

Take Care
