Ruddies
Posted: 07 Apr 2009, 10:35
Went out to the aviary yesterday after work to discover three Ruddy fledlglings - they are so tiny. I thought the pair had babies but was very careful not to bother them as they are a young pair and I only got them last spring ( from Birds R us - a detour on the way home from holidays!! ) - this will be their first clutch.
They seem to be doing well and I think one of the babies might be pied. The male isnt territorial with the nest but defends the mealworms like crazy.!
