2 Great-spotted youngsters in the garden this morning
Checked out our garden nest this morning to find it completely empty - given that the eggs only hatched last week they've clearly been predated, likely by the (too many) local magpies. Not losing that much sleep over it though as was only Wood Pigeon!
