Things always seem to move so slowly at this time of year. Both Box1 and Box2 appear to be taken, but the birds occupying them appear to be more concerned with making sure they retain control of their boxes than they do with nest building.
It's not only Bella that's playing at nest building. Fay is too!
Fay seems to have the habit of hitting her head against the walls of the nest box when doing a nesting wriggle.
It's your own fault, Fay. Don't sulk!
Bertie is still making regular appearances in the nest box - which is more than you can say about Bill!
Bella follows Bertie in and chases him out!
Here is Bella doing a nesting wriggle again.
I'm not quite sure what she thinks she is up to here.
Whatever it is, I hope she is enjoying it!
Was that nice, Bella?
Back to Box1 again.
Fay arrives with some moss.
I don't think she wants to let go.
Eventually she does.
She does a nesting wriggle to celebrate ...
... and another ...
... and departs!
