We have some new lodgers!
This is the third year we have had a nest in the stables – we have had wrens and swallows before but this year we have a much messier nest.
Visually this is the most boring video but the sound is what told me that we actually have some chicks.
It took me a while to discover what kind of chicks as the parents always flew off too quickly for me to get a good look at them. One of them very obligingly perched on the gate the other day though so I can definitely say they are sparrows. I feel very honoured!
On a slightly related note, we also have a colony of snails in the gate post. It is very interesting but I’m not sure they are quite so welcome!
Did you find some bugs for them?

I’m not nice enough to have done that! Although, I don’t think I could reach them anyway – I felt very precarious just taking the photograph!
