Stuck, caught, trapped, these animals tried with all their strength to free themselves but they couldn't do it alone. They would have died where they were if not for help. Our human species has a lot to apologize for to the animals, but when these angels were at the brink of death, they got what they so desperately needed and deserved: freedom. Be a part of our rescue team.

I found a tiny budgie egg at a pet shop. If I could incubate it, would I be able to raise it? With these big human hands? Its mother had just been sold. This meant the egg would have no chance without me giving it a try. Last Saturday we had some music technicalities to solve. Sorry if you have been waiting on the video. I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did making it :) A big thanks to my subscribers, my supporters, and to everyone else watching. Your rescue stories are amazing, there are so many of us out there! Are YOU one of those exceptional fans who’s here looking for a way to support what I do? Well, it’s in fact because a family of guardians like you that I can keep on going and share these stories with the world, so thank you from the bottom of my hart for even considering it.

As you'll see, several of the chicks didn't survive to fledging. There was a cold snap during the nesting period which could have had a bearing on the matter. Rest assured that the bird feeders were (and still are) well stocked. Like minded people with bluetit nest boxes in the UK left comments saying many of their chicks also hadn't survived through to fledging this year either. The chicks hatched over a four day period, usually this would only be a two day affair. The final chick to hatch on day 4 didn't stand much of a chance compared to its siblings which were already much larger after 2 or 3 days of being fed. The sharper eyed amongst you might have noticed that there isn't a day 15 or 19 in the video. This was due to a recording failure and a computer meltdown. The camera and computer had been streaming 24/7 for two and a half months and started to fight back! The parents continue to feed the chicks in and around the garden and the chicks have not returned to the nest box. This is absolutely normal. The white fluff in the nest is Sheep's wool.

Here's a little montage which takes us from an empty nest box to first egg. The British Trust for Ornithology has a BlueTit Diary page which sets out their nesting and breeding habits and states that usually blue tits spend between one and two weeks building their nest. Some even build their nest in only a few days. Our female took between 6 and 7 weeks! Such a perfectionist. It might go some way to explain why this nest was so deep!
