Bluetit Diary    Apr 2012 (12)

 

 

Saturday 21st April 2012

What's going on with Box3 is a bit of a mystery.  I'm pretty sure it is too late for a bluetit pair to start nesting now, but here are two birds which still seem to be taking an interest in this box.

Presumably this is the male going inside?

Unfortunately, after this promising start, nothing further of interest happened!

days later there was another visit to Box3.

No sign of partner this time though.

A day later, a bluetit made a solitary visit.

Why aren't these birds either preoccupied with their own nest, or alternatively, if they haven't got one, getting on with building one here?

Very strange!
