This photo, by ‘cavalier’ in the Netherlands, shows an adult tree sparrow, feeding a recently fledged young great tit.
It reminds me of my earlier blog posts, about a one-year-old starling feeding its baby siblings … and about an orangutan sharing her food with chimpanzees.
From the USA: Now’s the time when young birds fledge and leave their nests. But what happens next? Do their parents help them learn to survive or are they on their own? See here.
