Hey Paul! Yes, but so far the same as last year - she is *still* bringing in and taking out on a daily basis!! Not too worried as exactly the same happened last year, in fact I think it was a full couple of weeks from first material until she actually went all in on building the nest. At least she is getting a bit of practice!
This is all happening in a 3-hole concrete, with not too much happening in the other boxes. No sign of the robin (or wrens) so far, so if that box is going to be used it will have to be a second brood. I did have a moment of excitement in the starling box last week when sparrows were showing a real interest for a couple of days - this culminated with a fight inside the box between 2 males, neither of which have been back since..
Sorry not been on here much with new work commitments.. will post an update if/when she finally gets building properly!
