We have fitted many different bird boxes around the yard along with hedhehog boxes.
My auntie brought me this red box last year , after putting this one up within days the Bluetits was inspecting it, a couple of weeks they was sleeping in it and later on in the year they was nesting in it . I took these pictures stood in the kitchen so not to disturb them. After the babies left and it was empty I cleaned it out hoping they'll use it again this year. Last week I noticed a couple of bluetits going in again so presume they just using it whilst the weathers cold ?
