Wow!!!! I'm so amazed!!!! That is fantastic footage.... I've loads to learn its seems, as I always thought the male only fed the female when she was sitting on her eggs, but clearly, this is not the case.

Isn't he doing a great job of minding her.

Set up for 2020:
Box 1: East Top view - Blue tit nest started 6th March, abandoned on 8th April. Queen wasp started nest 19th April - Evicted 21st April.
Box 2: North Side view - no interest at all. Queen wasp started nest 13th April - Evicted 15th April - Large Spider now living there
Box 3: East Top view - old Aldi box. - Great Tit nest started 19th April - 1st egg 30th April - 3 total - all 3 hatched 16th May, all 3 fledged 5th June.
Garden Wildlife camera - 5th May - lucky dip!
