3 Baby Chaffinches

Passed my garage window this afternoon, and heard a noise.
Opened the door and there were 3 young chaffinches flying around in there.
I think they have been in there all night because I had the door open to get Mr F's wheelchair out to go and get him from the hospital.
Fortunately there were a few spilt sunflower hearts and niger seeds on the floor, so I assume they found them.
Thing is, they are now hanging around on the drive outside the garage, and not really scared when I pass by.
I've triple checked in case mum is in there too, but nothing.
Anything I can do to assist them? TIA.

I think its highly likely that mum will hear them chirping and come to their aid.

Hope so, I went out earlier and investigated closely, I think the wind has emptied my niger seed feeder and it's all blown onto the drive, no wonder they don't want to move.

Turbulent times, for sure!
