Great Tits in nestbox

Hi All,

Great news.  For the second year running Great Tits are now busy nest building.  I decided to setup the nest camera this year and as many of you will know, its an interesting insight.  I've noticed over the last few days that they're making use of string and even small white feathers.  So, hopefully it will be as successful as last year with five fledglings.

Sadly, I think the local cats made an attempt on the nest the other night and so opted to put up some fencing to offer at least some protection.
