A sneaky peek behind the summerhouse today confirmed the identity of the nest owner. We are now officially expecting little fluffy Red Legged Partridges! I had not thought of that one. Silly really because they often scuffle about on that side of the garden. Mum was really sweet when I peered round the corner, she huddled down and hoped I would not see her, which of course I pretended I did not. I do have manners after all! She was really well comoflaged against the dead leaves. The same dead leaves hubby has been threatening to clear since we moved in. I am so glad he left them alone. I will have to go and google the gestation period of RL Partridge eggs now!
