Black Redstart juvenile - Phoenicurus ochruros

We have had the pleasure of watching the family of four babies from eggs to fledglings.
Mum has spent the last two days squawking encouragement from the entrance of the barn
and finally this morning they left the nest.
They face a perilous few days until they are self-sufficient.
