Hi the 7 young in the nest have made it through to their 3rd week (21 days on 26/11) this makes it a clutch of 7 officially in my records. They won't be seperated until the weekend. Here is some more pics showing their progress. Also pics of my other Longtail pairs. (Sam every other pair has one of yours as a parent in it)
It is truly raining longtails here.


another nest of 5 just fledged on the weekend

Wow, you'll have hundreds shortly.
In the last photo I didn't recognise the OBs till I read your description as they look bigger than the longtails - they're closer to the camera I guess.

Awesome parents, my best is 5 youngs, I hope someday I have a pair like this

Nice work with producing some good numbers.

Such a "smart, tidy" looking bird, the longtail.
