Whinchat family

[Mike Warburton]

Had a great season (albeit a little wet) with a family of Whinchats this year and against all the odds they managed to fledge 5 out of 6 chicks.

This is the male with some food for the chicks.As you can see he has somehow broken his leg but it didnt stop him providing in all weathers.

Portrait shot of the wet female.

Finally one of the juveniles.

Quality images Mike When you follow a pair like this over a period of time you really start to appreciate just how much hard work these birds put in to successfully bring up the young .
