4 healthy chicks huddling up together.

Judging by the size of the chicks and the amount of feathers in the box there seems to be plenty of prey in the area.

Feeding time. 

[melv16]

Looks like a pigeon. 

[melv16]

Feeding time. There's a smaller chick that gets pushed to the back during the scrum.

[Old_Geezer]

Ah. Chicks don't fly, which is why this time I see something 🙂.  Yeah, cute.

[melv16]

Grub's up.

[melv16]

Looks like they're feeding themselves.

Pigeon wing fluttering in the breeze. 

[melv16]

Feeding frenzy on a pigeon. 

[melv16]

I can't see the smallest chick surviving, as it seems it can't feed itself...I hope I'm wrong.

[melv16]

Hopefully, when this lot have fledged we'll have the hobbys to watch.

[melv16]

Pigeon for elevenses.

Is the smallest chick still alive melv?  Sorry my eyes are failing me at the moment.

[melv16]

I think I counted 5 amid the feeding scrum, LB.

[ladybirder]

Thank you melv.  It's so hard to tell.  Nice to see them all cuddled up trying to shelter from the wind there.

[melv16]

There are 5, LB.

[Tilly2]

Lovely to see. Thanks Melv.

[ladybirder]

Still quite a NEST FULL but not sure if it's 4 or 5. 😀

[melv16]

Pigeon has just been delivered to 5 chicks

[melv16]

And a starling.
