Sorry for the late updates. We had an upload issue.
What wonderful and unseasonal weather. Today really
did feel like Spring had arrived with temperatures reaching 15C.
Today we were working over in our local nature reserve,
but left the cameras running. After a hard day of lifitng logs we
went through all the video. Lots of visits were recorded of the male
visting to clean the box.
The female returned on her own three times and inspected
the enterance hole and roof on every visit. No nesting wiggles were
observed/recorded.
Our resident rooster returned and used box 1. It looks
like box 1 is the choosen box for roosting in now.
With the female now visiting more often on her own will
we have a nest in this box? Time will tell . . . .
Whilst working in our local nature reserve we could
hear the Great Tit's singing away whilst pairs of Blue Tits could
be seen inspecting many of the boxes in the reserve. With all this
warm weather will it cause problems with the baby chicks this year?
