So anyone know what it means if a male BT is doing shuffles in a box?
I always thought it was the female who did them when she's decided that here's where she'll build a nest.
I've had what I'm sure is my male BT spend about 3 mins in my new box looking as if he's waiting for the female to arrive, and in the meantime he does three definite shuffles/wriggles while he's there.
She never turns up, so he leaves eventually.
He did some shuffles a few days ago, too.
I hope this doesn't mean he's just eyeing up the box as a potential roost and nothing more.
