The Birds have flown the nest

The Great Tits that were nesting at the back of the garage have gone. The wife noticed a lot of activity yesterday in the back garden and thought she saw some young tits flapping their wings but couldn't be sure they were ours. But, all was silence in the box today. When they were in the nest, the chicks would make such a racket if you got anywhere near it, but today, all is quiet.

I'm going to miss those Great Tits, flying in and out of the nest with their worms in their gobs. The cheeping of the chicks as they realise lunch has arrived. The black cat from across the road sitting for hours watching them, keeping guard.

I'll finally be able to use the new decking now.

Great int'it.
