Managed to get out in the garden today, my main task was to put a nest box up in the tall tree i have in the back garden, now to my amazement with in no less than 5 minutes of getting of the ladder a Blue Tit landed on the roof of it started calling another one landed near, then one at a time they both took a look around the inside of the box, I'm guessing that its a breeding pair, and on the look for prospective nesting sites. fingers crossed.
Cheers, Jasper
Hi Jasper, well done on the nest box! I had some up last year but no one took residence! You'll have to keep an eye out!!
Cheers, Jason
Sounds like you may have a spring to look forward to. Hope they breed successfully.
Take care all, Stich.

Hello Jasper, that's great to hear. We put up 10 nesting boxes and 8 of them have been inspected a few times and the pair have been in and out of them and marking the entrance hole so we are very hopeful of a busy springtime ..............if we can keep the Great Spotted Woodpecker at arms length from them ! Good luck with yours.
