Ann,
Female Wren hasn't picked the nest as of yet, I am not holding much hope to be honest, Nothing like the blue tit. Male wren builds up to 7 nests and lets the female choose one.
She will then line the nest with feathers and start laying, Our nest is fully build but not lined which shows she hasn't picked it.
Everything is going good for the blue tits now, Drama free!
Here's some pictures of Tatty using the Scott feeder, She loves the mealworms now. Sometimes in and out with mealworms 10 times within a few minutes (scott feeder isn't far from the nestbox)
Male however is bringing more natural food in and only waxworms but Tatty is relying on the mealworms for all her feeding.
I'll do sparrow update soon, We lost one sadly I don't know how it died it was the biggest one of them all, I think the mum and dad give it something bad to eat or something big and chocked it.
I had to remove its body today, Other 2 are doing fine though full of feathers and eyes open. I'll do update on remaining two after the weekend.
Anyway Tatty in the scott feeder..
