Nest box

Alison M 05/02/2015 18:28

Hello, Just after any advice. Last spring I had sparrows in the nest box, but since then they have kept using it ! I have been waiting for the right time to clean it out but now have blue tits using it.. Shall I leave it alone for this year, or clean it out anyway, would they be building a nest yet ? Thanks, Alison.

Thanks for your reply Wendy. So I guess if they want it clean they will clean it themselves? I know that last year when I put a few nest starter materials in, the first thing that they did when they decided to move in was to chuck all my bits out and bring in their own. It will be interesting to see what happens this year.
