Just an update as I have been having Macbook issues of late.
I'm afraid its looking as though I will without a nesting bird in my boxes for the first time in 20 years
......I still have a male blue tit rooster in one box, but there have been zero visits during the day. My wife did see two blue tits inspecting my new side box on the shed but that was 8 days ago and there have been no further visits.
So it will probably be just the House Martins this summer and hopefully some interest in the 4 swift boxes when I start to play the attraction calls in May.
I have managed to install my 16 camera DVR and the swift calling system over the last week so any visits will alarm from now on.
There is some good news though. We put up another two boxes in our Moorland wood this morning bringing the total to 8. Upon inspecting the three I put up 2 years ago I found two seasons worth of moss in each so its good to know they are being used.
I will just have to get my fix watching all your great video clips unless I get a late taker.
