I am optimistically starting a thread for 2020, even though it's still very quiet in the garden. The box didn't get a single visitor through the entrance last year and so far this year it's the same.
Hopefully as the weather improves, activity will pick up! There are plenty of GTs and BTs about.
In non-box nesting news, House Sparrows having been busy gathering up nesting material and there is a pair of Magpies building a huge nest in a tree not far from my garden.
No major changes in the box this year, it's still a pair of Raspberry Pi Zeros with a Pi Noir camera in the roof and a Fisheye camera on the side. There was an issue last year with the Pi's randomly failing, I think this was a combination of bad soldering on one of the power lines (my fault!) and an unreliable SD card in the roof Pi. Both these should be fixed *fingers crossed*
