This noisy crow has been aggressively protecting his or her brood in one local garden this week. As the fledglings leave the nest and get their wings in working order the family take turns in making sure they have safe space in which to learn to fly. Some neighbourhood dogs have been banished to their homes and gardeners try to talk soothingly to the stressed parents. A few peanuts let them know that most humans will refrain from hurling abuse or stones and that their young are not in danger everywhere! The ordeal for everyone will be over soon, we hope.
