Watching you watching me.

We have had a long day today judging gardens for the agriculture show.
This birds nest was in the first one we saw this morning. I forgot to ask Patsy what sort of birds they were but there were five babies.

How gorgeous - some version of swallow by the looks of things. Worth doing that judging for - I'd want everybody to win though!

[Pat Knowles]

@judithg Well they could be swallows Judith but I don't think swallows use straw for their nests just spit & clay mixture.

[Sarah Bremner]

Sweet! And so clever the way nests are built!

[Diana Moss]

It will be interesting to see how they progress

[Jean Tookey]

How lovely. I hope we can see their progress. Our bird box was empty this year.

[Graham Harcombe]

They're watching you alright :-D

[MonicaE]

Cute!

[Fanny Brogden]

Lovely shot, love babies!!

[Gords]

I don't know - the lengths some people will go to to win the garden competition!

[Pat Knowles]

@gords Yes would you believe it, they came second actually!

[Phil Howcroft]

Oh look at those cute little eyes peeping over the nest! I'm impressed that you noticed them - as busy as you must be with the show.

[Judith Greenwood]

@happypat No that was making me uncertain but then I thought perhaps they'd been lazy!! Come on Andy!!

[Gillian]

Cute :)

[Pat Knowles]

@judithg Found out today that these baby birds are blackbirds, the second brood she has reared..isn't that lovely, I love blackbirds.

[Judith Greenwood]

@happypat Oh good girl - we need more blackbirds!
