I hope they say Thank you to you, for all the money, hours of filming, worry etc you’ve put in. (From the 7 little GTs) It’s great (pardon the pun) that 7 made it all the same, well done yahoo_clap

Well thats it, last one left 7.25, you can see Bobs priority's cleaning first feeding later, then she was back in a little while later sorting the nest out!

You had better wait to see if she roosts in there tonight, then find out what the morning brings Pete.

Wow Pete, I think that last chick thought it had to fly up and out of the box. Talk about making things difficult for itself! As for mum, she is certainly looking interested in getting that nest in shape again.................... Sue

Lovely ending Pete to your nest well done to your birds; a second clutch maybe ..... By the way have you had problems with receiving meal worm deliveries on time?

Have'nt had any problems with that Kath, get mine from live foods direct, if you get 1kg or more I think they send by courier who deliver next day.

Thanks everyone for your comments. No activity in the GT box so it looks like no second round, which is fine with me. The robins are doing well as you can all see by the photo, I can see the parents going back and forth with food from where I am sitting. If I get any more photos of the robins I shall post them.
