Fantail brought some hay in this morning, but there's no sign of it now. Here she is in the afternoon having another go.
The weather has been cold and grey for most of this week, not the sort of weather to turn a bluetit's thoughts to nesting. Life for both our pairs seems pretty mundane with little excitement for us, their human watchers, to report.
Fantail and Neptune in Box1 appear to be spending their time productively. Every now and again Fantail decides to get a bit of practice at collecting nesting material. Then she decides that it's too early and takes it out again. Neptune is often around, but generally leaves Fantail to get on with it - after all, nest building is girls' stuff!
