 ive looked at the images this morning and to my shock a wren had his head inside the bluetit box and then bounced around over the box, the clip before was of probably martha on the fence looking a bit bothered near the box, that's a bit worrying to me

8 .30am its all happening here, my wren box that had a nest built but not used last year, is now being used by Mr Wren building a nest, and I'm happy to say bluetit has just gone in to fed Martha, so their box is safe thank goodness  |

Wow, all systems go at yours Ann. Am sure mine are not at the incubating stage yet but must be close. I love wrens, it will be lovely for you to watch.

Martin has been in several times so far this morning,presumably to be feeding martha
wrens are lovely little birds, just have to wait and see if Jenny wren approves of the nest
is it all quiet at your box Sue

Yes, very quiet Ann. Only see the odd in or out. Wish I could tell them apart properly so i’d Know who was coming or going  Only time I know i’ve got it right is when the male hangs on the outside and peeks in. The female just flies straight in. When you are unable to see the whole thing you don’t know if it’s him coming out after feeding her or her coming out after turning eggs (hopefully). Waiting for the moment she goes in and stays for quite a period, then I will hope she is incubating. Trouble is I can’t spend all day just looking. Wildlife camera for sure next year Sue |

Gorgeous photos Ann. Like you I can’t get them all in one post. Am sure Paul will help you with the videos, he helped me. I know you have to put them on YouTube first and publish them. Copy the long number they give you then click on the video icon on the bar next to the photo icon on the toolbar above, and paste into your message. Not technically minded Ann so this probably not much help to you. Paul - help Please. Sue |

Sorry, I didn't even notice the video comment  Ann, You need to upload your videos to Youtube, When you have your youtube link and the video is live come on here and you'll see the little thing icon next to the one you click to upload your picture link it the black icon next to the one you use to upload pictures. This little black icon is where you paste your Youtube link to, It will then add to your post. Or you can just directly copy and paste the youtube link into a reply and I will edit it for you if you have any problems. But you need to upload the video to Youtube first. |

thanks Paul sounds ok to follow but I'm not sure about using u tube, at the moment the camera is set for one mixture clips, ill reduce the time to 45 secs and then i will see if its small enough to email you the clip and then hopefully you can post it on here, the files are to large to send
would be lovely if she chooses it this year,dont think i will have long to find out he has been very busy

sorry ,im not sure how to do them all on one post Ann, here's what I did when I put my garden piccies on in one message: I uploaded all of them to Postimages first into the desired album, then I opened a new tab/window to Bigg Bird forum & typed out my first description for the first piccie. Then clicked the tab/window for Postimages, found the correct piccie, then clicked Share & so forth (exactly same as for one piccie). If more descriptions, just type it out underneath your first piccie, then back to PI for next piccie & so on for the rest.
If only one description of piccies, type it out first then just go back to PI & click Share etc. on next piccie & next & next.

Great News Ann - Hope Jenny loves it.
I will be so envious if it happens, I've had a wren flitting round the feeders on the fence lately - I wish one of my boxes had a wren nesting in it.

both my Martha and Martin are about,Martha pops in and out of the box,
i saw them jumping from one feeder to the other together, then he went to land on the other log box and he went in Martha came too but sat on the fence, im not sure what all that was about, our they planning on a second nest before chicks have hatched,
ill keep my eye on that one
i know that's big wishful thinking as great tits have 2 broods, i think sometimes do but not normally, is that correct Paul

Great tits will sometimes have a second brood Ann yes,
Blue tits on the other hand only have the 1 brood.
