 Looking good at yours. I love the view you have of the nest. I've never had great tits nest in my boxes. One year they nested in a hole in the wall though. It is still so wintry here I don't think our birds are really in the nest building mood

I hope all your nests are progressing well Just a quick update on the great tit nest……I can see 5 eggs. I noticed yesterday afternoon that Mrs GT was spending time on the nest and she has continued sitting on it again this morning.   |
