A Blue Tit fledgling leaves the nest

Clare was pretty excited today as the fledgling Blue Tits she's been observing for weeks now finally left their nestbox (at least, the one we saw did).

The fledgling leaves the nest

... and takes flight.

Back again.
Here's a link to my DropBox folder - a video of Clare talking through the fledgling's first flight (in the spirit of SpringWatch).
