Just a male visiting daily now Benn,
Its strange because two females fought for the side box both brought in material but she stopped roosting weeks ago now, Unless she is dead I don't know.
"Marilyn" is roosting for the first time tonight in her box, This box is right next to my swift box probably only 1 metre away.
I am 100% sure now this box is two females, Marilyn with spot on her face brings material in, And another female with no spot takes it all back out.
Both females have been in the box the same time they don't fight both done nest wriggles at same time but one is bringing it in and out is dumping it out.
I would love them both to have a super brood together but time will tell, I'll post a picture of marilyn roosting tonight and you'll see only handful of material in box compared to 9 days ago when the floor was full, I'll post two pictures actually.
Marilyn roosting tonight
This box 9 days ago material wise
