The New Bird box 2 has proved to be waterproof despite the deluge we have had day after day, this winter.

The blue tits as usual check out the box for a suitable nest site for next year

 

 
The new Robin box, as used by one last year, is receiving a lot of interest

 

 
 
This sparrow is the most constant visitor

 

 
Recently this bird removed some material and added a couple of small leaves, perhaps trying to stake a claim

 

 
 
The claim by the sparrow is not likely to hold water with these tits though

 

Nor this little chap

 

 
 
This open fronted nest box is in a honeysuckle bush, and quite well hidden, despite this, has already been discovered, they don't miss much, do they

 

Yet another visitor, a great tit, although not likely to use it

 

 
 
This is a bird more likely to make use of this box.

As you can see all the small birds start checking for nesting and roosting sites now. If you are thinking of putting up a nest box, do it NOW!! It makes a really good Xmas present for young or old, and is very educational, especially if it has a camera in it, watch you're own Springwatch.

A good starter box can be had by clicking the following link

 

This time of year its important to keep feeding, seed and supplying mealworms on a regular basis will encourage birds to look to this source for their chicks next year

 

 
 
We feed each day at midday, and the worms are gone within an hour
