Very young Thrush.

Lovely! You must be feeling like a proud grand dad

Sure am. There's six of them though and that nest is getting very tight, so they'll be out soon.
Still, I hope they'll cost me less than my own kids did (still do).:-\
Cheers Brian

A common turn taken with a 500f4 mk2 at speed and its pin sharp. All afternoon for a couple of shots.
