The school pair has bred again and yesterday I ringed the 4 chicks with an audience of 60 Year 4s and several teachers all with their noses up against the window. The nest site is right outside the window of the school hall and it has become a popular pastime to spot the feed visits of mum and dad (which seem to average about every 2 minutes at the moment). The children found it hard to believe that it was only 5 weeks since the last brood were ringed and the fledged chicks of that brood are still seen around the place from time to time.
