I am out of here

Description

Silvereye baby (Zosterops lateralis) just leaving the nest. They were nesting in my hanging basket. I was shooting them in the nest today, left my camera there and went to do some gardening. As I was passing them later, I saw that the nest was empty and just managed to catch the last baby on its way to the bushes. Almost missed it!
