Would it be too cosy?
It's a while since I was here, since Covid my birdbox has been rather empty 🤔 However "our" Bluetit returned to spend Christmas & New Year with us. My question concerns bedding.

Now I...- ThomasW

Mystery Material
Hello all, Each year I have noticed our blue tits bring in the slightest bit of red nesting material (see pic). I have also noticed this on other images of other people's blue tit nests. Does anyone have any idea what it is? And more importantly does anyone have any idea why the blue tit feels... -

Blue tit chicks killed in birdbox. Should the nest be removed
Hi Apologies for the blunt title there but I’m unsure what to do. I built a birdbox in January with a camera internally and within days some Bluetits were visiting. 5 months later, they built a nest and there were 9 chicks and one unhatched egg. About 1 1/2 weeks into the chicks being born, 6...- birdboxcamera
