Have they or haven’t they? Look carefully and we can see a few tail feathers moving at the top of the webcam view. The Chick P’s are most likely sitting on the top shelf of the nest box looking out of the hole. This is what we call ‘branching out’ where the Chick P’s will hop in and out of the nest box and maybe along a nearby branch - it will take a little while for them to get used to the big wide world outside their cosy nest box which has been their home for the past few months. Once the Chick P’s take the plunge they will take their first flight - this is when they have fledged (left the nest).
