Is it a Youtube video Twinkle? If so, just post the link as text if you want and I can edit your post to show the video.

Cool vid - looks like they are bringing moss in? I'm not sure you can "embed" a video from that source, so I think the link will have to do - or upload to Youtube,

A little bit of moss speaks volumes Twinkle! Good luck we have a few weeks to go yet before things hot up.  |

Friday a lot of activity in ALL bird boxes. Spent ages looking at the video. But today only two visible bt, one in no. 1 Terrace and the other in the cam box. Don't think this wind is helping.

Lots of activity today with all boxes being visited. Nesting material in the cam box. Couldn't see if any being taken into other boxes. Did i mention that i think it is only two BT? I have a couple of pics and if i can get them on here i want to know if they are both BT. Not very clear pics. ![]() |

Couldn't tell you from them pictures to be honest twinkle, As you said not the best pictures for an ID.

I was comparing the size of the bird next to the hole.

Even still a picture that far away trying to confirm even sizing isn't going be easy.
Blue tit 12cm
Great tit 14cm
Sparrow 15cm
Only few cm's different between a number of birds it could be, So pictures that far away isn't going be easy to ID what it was even size wise.

Still have one 1 bird staying in cam box overnight but there bird seems to have disappeared, or, it could be on of the ones going into the middle terrace without the cam. Sitting in garden watching today i have seen two going into it. Looked with spy camera last week and there is plenty of nesting material in it. Have managed to deter a cat, seen on camera when bird goes out of cam box in morning, by putting up branches of rose bushes. Plenty of sparrows around. Blue tit just flown into terrace box.
