New Hatched Chaffinches!

After sitting for about two weeks the female chaffinch has hatched out at least three chicks. I've managed to photograph two of them through our dining room window.

If you look closely you can see two beaks open in the darkness beneath the ivy. In fact the chicks look to be all mouth.

I saw a third beak today but have not yet had time to try for another photo.
Oh, and Dad's shown up, I've seen him once.
