Hi All
I made a birdbox and put it in my garden last autumn. Since late March, a blue tit has been filling it up with moss, feathers and dog fur we put out from our German Shepherd. Up to now it's going rather well. The nest looks pretty well stocked by 22nd April.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I was hoping to show a short video, but alas not. I'll try linking some of the progress via youtube.
Here's pic of the mother bird with a tree bumblebee in the nest. When she woke up and found him there, it sadly didn't work out too well for him.

Lovely update Billy and the nest building is really coming along nicely; I'm not sure she will have laid any eggs yet but should do so within a couple of week; HERE is a link you may find interesting with rough timings for the blue tit.
Hi Hazy
We wondered ourselves when the egg laying would begin - she's been building her nest since around the 20th of March. But a couple of days back we saw this:
