After a busy breeding season now is the time of year when
many of our small garden birds begin to go into a full moult and replace their old
worn out feathers with pristine new ones. This process can take from 6 to 8
weeks depending on the species, during which time they will mostly stay hidden
from view in the bushes and undergrowth.
