Well, there appears to be three huge chicks in the nest. I always think of chicks squarking for food but as soon as I enter the shed there is no movement and no noise......even though I've bumped into the parents now and again!
I aint no ornathologist but I would imagine this demeanour has evolved/ ie noisy moving chicks get eaten by predators whereas still quite chicks live to perpetuate the species!
Anyone know,do both blackbird parents administer to the young as I'm sure I've seen him and her at the nest?
Also once they've gone, would they use the same nest again next year?
