Many apologies … after our first post telling you the numbers and sexes we had in advertantly swapped the numbers around.  We have put that right now so all posts are correct!

Wow……….what an evening……..Two fledged 93 and 94………..both boys………!!

Exercising wings……..

Our boy 93

First to go is number 93 our little boy……..

Our boy

The second chick is down on the ramparts…..no major flight just enjoying the view….very normal behaviour when they are fledging….all will be fed and cared for during the whole of this process by the parents…….It’s number 80 one of the girls….

Little Girl

All is well as we all wait for them to fledge……Mum still brings in food……

Food

Food comes in …..chick tempted back to nest turret…….well not quite …….hunting round the cathedral. ….and the pidgeon looks on ……..not in awe……..

Temptation

No 94 is out of the nest box on the main ramparts ……but I think a big jump took him there not a flight…….

Ramparts

No one has fledged yet ……plenty of exercising of wings …..and looking like we are ready to fly ……mean while small parcels of food are occasionally brought in to the nest.

Nearly ready

The first one on top of the turret was no 94 ……one of the boys.

First on top

Three up on the ramparts…….No 80 a little girl the only one left in the nest…….

Three up!
