It that time of year again when you can hear the chicks calling , probably the easiest young to spot they make so much noise there no mistaking it where they are?
I got some shots from a couple of nests but usual trees in way and branches and leaves causing shadows etc. Then I came across this nest in a dead tree with no obstructions a rare thing indeed!
The sun only shone on it though at around 7-8pm but luckily these were taken when we had the sunny spells a few weeks ago
