Baby Great Tit being fed by parent

I was walking in front of our oak tree when I heard a lot of tweeting. I looked up and realised that the tree was being used as a "nursery" for birds. There were a few juveniles Great Tits hopping from branch to branch waiting for their parents to feed them and I managed to film one of them. In the small video below, you will see some lovely intimate scenes. I think I was lucky to get these scenes as these little baby birds never stay still!!!

Two chicks caught smoking weed behind the wall!

No, not really!
This is only Willow and Hazel eating grass! My picture makes them look like they are holding that piece of grass just like you would a cigarette, don't you think?

Here is a close-up of Willow with grass on her beak:

 

And what are these two doing? Hiding from me? Neigh! They are just preening.

Chickens sunbathing

"What is that lying down on the grass?", you might say...

 Is that a dead chicken?


No, not at all! And, if we have a closer look, we can see Hazel sunbathing. Slightly tilted to one side with one wing extended to catch as much of the sunrays as possible.

 The funny thing is when the hens see one of them sunbathing, they join in straight away. And, here is Willow taking a similar position, both looking in the same direction. Awe! sweet, aren't they?!
