Waiting
This fledgling Song Thrush is only just out of the nest with small fine down feathers yet to drop. Tail feathers are not yet developed and will grow around 7cm (3 inches) and wings will also develop further. The fledgling was sitting on my deck railing waiting on the Mother to fly in for feeding. This took place three times then the fledgling made a short flight into a nearby tree.
