Photo on Sunday 2017-21

Do you remember the sea gull chick from last week? Well, when I looked a few days later, I saw not one, but three chicks. Being fed by one of their parents. I wanted to take a photo, but unfortunately I am not one to take a camera to the loo with me. Already the parent was done with the feeding and two of the chicks scarpered back from where they came. By the time I got back to the living room and grabbed a camera, the roof looked empty again.

I tried for several days after that, but I never saw either the one on its own, or the three of them. I don't think they have fledged already, because even from my distance I can see they still have quite a bit of down on them. 

So, instead of photos of the three chicks, I give you... Miss Oswin!

  1. Miss Oswin looks so happy that I thought maybe the chicks ended up in her stomach ?

    1. No, that's her catnip mouse! She doesn't know about the chicks on the roof and if she did, I think the parents would deter her from going up.

    1. She was. For about ten minutes. And then I went to bed and she forgot all about it...

    1. Well, I don't think the gulls were that little to start with! Two of your little birdies could easily have fitted into one of my chicks!
