My breeding Blue Tit nest box has been interesting today and yesterday with the youngsters about to fledge. The parents are visiting the nest every minute or so with beaks full of food. I dont know how many youngsters they have but there were 7 eggs so there may be 7 hungry mouths to fill.
Blue Tit and Blue Bottle
Blue Bottle delivered and out he comes.
Who knows what it is trying to do.
Both parents come and go constantly.
Faecal sacks are removed and dropped well away from the nest to keep the nest clean.
One bird was surprised to discover its partner already in the nest box.
