carrion crows nest |
green woodpecker hole the wood on the rim of the hole is still fresh and there were chippings at the base of the trunk |
house sparrow colony box |
this is a redstart box that a nuthatch is using notice how the birds have packed mud around the entrance to make it smaller and rounder |
redstart normal box |
nest is nearly built inside this box think it could be blue or great tit |
this is an owl box that was erected by Steve Carter naff all in it though! |
we think this was a tawny owls nest hole but again like my head empty |
these are old woodpecker holes that could be used by other hole nesting species |
Now for some birds
nuthatch |
male house sparrow this was the first one I've had up here hope he finds the boxes |
this male pied wagtail is breeding up here also, it finds my car wing mirrors fascinating and enjoys pooping on them |
female siskin |
male siskin |
still plenty of jay's about |
the main nestbox user the great tit |
and the blue tit |
