Hungry Baby Goldcrest with parent

A family of fledglings flew over the road one by one and we could hear the constant high pitched call from a lilac bush. This little fluffball found the twig in our conifer where it preened itself while waiting for Mum.

The goldcrest is Britain's smallest bird, which is not much bigger than a rose leaf. We watched the little fledglings for over an hour until they dispersed over the house taking the squeaky cheapings with them.
