hopeful!

i dont know if this deserves a thread..but in my nest box 2 metres from my window..ive had a coal tit( ) looking:
he poked his head in and out for 5 minutes..then went inside and didnt come out until 6 and a half minutes after!
ive also made a good decision |(for the birdies anyway) that im going to feed mealworms on wet or cold days in when the tits are nesting! good day all!

I have a pair of great tits in one box and blue tits investigating another. I have had the camera trained on the great tit box all day but I keep missing them.

We're getting daily visits in our boxes from a pair of Blue Tits, but they haven't started to nestbuild yet.

Once the eggs have hatched I try to supply meal worms every day for the nestlings until they leave the box.
