My House Sparrows Gone?

[Steven Gourlay]

I think my house sparrows have abandoned the nest, i have not seen them about over the last week or so and you can now no longer hear them squacking in the eves of the house. :(

Does this sound about the right time for the birds to up and leave the nest?

There is a good chance that they have gone steven, have you seen any of the young before now?

Cheers Carl, thats a pitty would have liked to get a couple of shots of the young ones.

Good news i went up to the garden at lunch time and it was absolutely heaving with birds including the house sparrows. My feeders were down at 1/2 way and i only topped them up a couple of days ago. Spotted what looks like a young robin, not had a chance to check the photos but will post them once i get time later.
