juvenile Hobby

tied up with other birds this year not had chance to find my usual Hobbies and this pair were quite close to a nest I first found in 2003! Th two young only fledged four days ago making it quite a late nest and the nest was in a large beech my first such nest but the Hobby monograph quotes up to 17% of nests in beech in the Midlands which maybe just reflects the lack of hedgerow beech tree sin North Lincs
