Well here we go again, another nesting
season starts, and as we have two Blue Tits roosting every night,
things look very promising.
The lady on the left is roosting in box 1 each night
The Lad on the right roosts in box 2
There have been regular fights over
ownership of box 1, mostly between females. These fights can be
quite vicious
This fight is I believe between two females
Just lately this bird, clearly marked on
the face, has been showing an interest, but it is not the bird that
roosts in box 2 and seems to be another female as they have a
slightly narrower white band around the head
During the 22nd a sort of stand off lasted for
almost 30 seconds
Fighting again between the two of them
less than an hour later
Lets hope they don't damage each other before the
breeding season starts
