Thanks everyone! that's great Linda you have an egg too I checked the camera this morning and believe there is two now but she is doing a good job of covering them! The starlings have more or less completed their nest and the female was in there this morning looking like she may be gearing up to lay her first egg so will have to update that thread too!

I can see 4 eggs in the nest may be more but she is so good at hiding them! she hasn't started brooding yet to my knowledge as she is spending a lot of time off during the day so probably more to come.

More to come for sure, I think - 4 would be a very low number for a bluetit.

Yes more to come, they keep us guessing don't they? π€¦

Here is a video and photos today, sorry about quality as having to take photos from TV, looks to be 8 chicks with one unhatched egg so far, dad is regularly coming in which is a good sign but did see a strange blue tit at the box today only knew it wasn't dad as mum was very agitated at it's presence so can only assume it is another female. drive.google.com/file/d/1u1uIyA1caKE-bNoOA7dX0LL2QoNScMu4/view?usp=sharing
