Chicks at St Fagans!
Follow our Great Tit nest box camera at St Fagans!http://www.museumwales.ac.uk/en/2736/
Eight eggs were laid on the 27th of April and finally hatched yesterday. The chicks are so small you can only really see them when they open their mouths. Mr & Mrs Great Tit are now very busy feeding their family in the woodlands at St.Fagans.
