I have a round decorative pot in my garden with a 4 inch narrow round entrance from the top. Bluetits have nested in it and the chicks are hatched inside. I am worried the chicks won't be able to fly out as their first flights will involve a vertical flight .
Great Tit - you know when they hatched? they leave the nest at between 16 - 22 days - I wonder if you could put the pot on its side at about the right time - the parent birds usually sit closed by when the fledglings are ready to go and try to encourage and tease them out

Thank you. Yes actually it is a great tit! I think they might be ready to fly soon, I'll keep an eye out and see if they need help.
