Mum encourages the youngsters to take the small pieces of corn from the main feeder and in doing so the littluns show off their new wing feathers. Heavily patterned and becoming quite defined we watch and wait to see how their plumage develops.
The weather has been a little inclement and Carpet has made sure that the chicks are not exposed to too much, despite their increase in size, she encourages them to stay underneath her.
However that said, although they have grown, when Melv gathers one up in his hands it makes you realise, they are still really tiny...
and very, very cute!!
