Chillimad - thanks for your posts - I already know the feelings of others on the subject of cats and can sympathise as they can be destructive and kill etc- as a cat owner I am not exempt ie my own cats foul my garden/dig up my plot also (i've already posted previously on this). I have 3 cats and they are not reknowned for bringing in birds, this is the first nest I've had in my garden so I was hoping that someone would be able to help me with protecting the nest maybe!?

My original post on this thread was about how I could protect these young birds etc and was not intended to be for other Grapes to have another rant about cats/dogs/pests of any kind!

Your pic is lovely though!
