| After the Blackbirds left and the Robin
chicks fledged not much more happened and through the rest of the summer a few birds
return to check out our new bird box 1 |
|
|
 |
 |
|
| This great tit is having a good look |
|
|
At this point we are keeping the light levels
low so they get used to the new box |
|
|
 |
 |
|
| They all seem to notice the strange lights
above and there are quite a lot |
|
| This blue tit is doing the same, checking
the lights, and they eye in the sky |
|
|

|
| Who says birds are daft, during a very heavy
rain shower this group of young birds shelter under the enormous new
bird box. One of the babies has pulled some wire out this wire feeds
the outside camera, and it is using it as a swing.
Thankfully this box is on a winch and can be
lowered and raised for any necessary adjustments |
|
| For next season we have replaced the box
used by the Robins, who successfully fledged 4 chicks. This new box
1 of a pair of new open fronted boxes, is located in a thick hedge,
the other box is in a Honeysuckle bush, both have some night vision
capability, and will be streamed on the net, lets hope they get used |
|
|
 |
 |
|
| Already new species, for us at least, have
checked out this box |
|
| An ever inquisitive blue tit is having a
good look |
|
|
 |
 |
|
| The new season is getting underway now with
all the birds checking out future winter roosting sites or suitable
nesting opportunities for next year |
|
| The two new Tit boxes have 4 cameras each, 1
out, 1 on top, 1 side camera and 1 angle camera block with auto
focus. The angle camera is for video recording only and wont be
streamed. This is a still, from this camera |
|
|
 |
 |
|
| Unfortunately competition between birds,
quite often turns to aggression |
|
| Already this has led to a couple of fights |
|
|
 |
 |
|
| Although things look and sound terrible,
thankfully there seem to be few lasting injuries |
