Space seems to be at a premium now in this fairy martin nest that was built under the roof of the back verandah just down from our sunbed. We've watched over the past month or so as the parents fly in with little insectian morsels to drop in the gaping mouths of the hungry and rapidly growing brood of four (you can see three of the little buggers in this pic). I suspect they will be taking to the wing this week or next.
