Saw my blue tit flying into its nesting box this a.m. as normal and then shortly after saw a starling squeeze its way out of the box ! I know it doesnt look good but what is happening and how can I stop it????
Hi
Get yourself one of the little metal nest box plates, this will stop other birds pecking around the hole to enlarge it and gain accessRSPB do one. Here's the linkhttp://shopping.rspb.org.uk/p/Nestboxes/Nest_box_plates.htm

Hi and welcome to the forum.
Judi is right. You need to make the hole smaller and those metal plates will work.
Cheers, Linda.
