It's all a bit scary when you're only little ! - Goldcrest juveniles - ( Regulus regulus )
I was beginning to think my Goldcrest had failed to breed this year until an adult turned up today with these two little cuties !
Goldcrests show absolutely no fear of me in the garden whatsoever and will happily use the feeders with me no more than 18 inches away at times.
This pair were full of bravado when the parent was around but lost all of that when left alone and then I felt quite sorry for them.
They also showed signs of being quite capable of feeding themselves but like all kids were still happy to have mum or dad do it all for them !
