Yesterday I arrived home to find our fantails had hatched their chicks. I spent some time watching them take turns in feeding and then resting on the nest. At times the nest would be vacant for up to 30 seconds and then one bird would arrive with bugs to feed chicks. I felt very privileged to watch this so close and yet they were quite accepting of my presence. Birding can be so much fun and been able to photograph them is a added bonus. I shall keep you posted as they grow and hopefully fledge as conditions have been extremely windy and so challenging for them.
