 This little fella was found at the side of the road. Not by me, but someone on an unrelated forum. I know what it is, but does anybody else? |

It is indeed a House Martin chick. Beautiful isn't it. Now a little tit bit for those who don't know, I didn't before reading the post, House Martin chicks are unable to take flight from ground level, but once at the top of a first storey they can fly very well indeed. So this little guy just wanted raising from floor level and off it went. What a lovely story it was.
Well done Skysmum & Sam.

If I was the one who found the chick I would have been over the moon to have helped it on its way. But it was someone else on another forum, about cars. So I can't take the credit. Thank you Shirls. |

It's OK Shirls, it is quite easy to misread a post, especially when I have written it. I know all about 'funny weeks', I seem to have them all the time. Chin up, there is always a bright spell comes along. You don't have time to be downhearted. |
