Sammi's boxes 2019

Another cruel twist in all this.....we hastily put up a spare nest box on the side of the house last year after the nesting season had ended I seem to remember....at the time the intention was to give the site a bit of shading as it doesn't face in a particularly good direction. Well with one thing and another we didn't get around to doing anything to improve the site and decided yesterday it was best to take it down ........well low and behold in the bottom there are a few bits of dried material that look remarkably like the start of a nest....so the box was hastily reinstalled.   So I'll have to try to watch from a distance to see if we have residents there.
