Default Blackbird has made us 'down tools'

Was Just about to chop down a badly positioned Leylandii type tree in the
garden and discovered that's where a blackbird is bringing a mouthful of
worms to every few minutes.

I want to start work on the tree; but i dont want to keep peering into the
nest and worry them.

How long roughly should I wait before the nest is likely to be cleared of
the babies and I can check them?
