Friday was another cold, dull day so I didn't expect any visits to bird box cam. I was wrong though, as I think this blue tit had a very quick look around inside without actually going into the nest box.








 

 

 

So our first prospective resident has had a look around on day two. I suppose that's not too bad. I just need to keep an eye out for any others.

There was little action to report from nest box cam. Just an inquisitive peep inside around lunch time. I reckon they were all too busy finding food in the snow

After lots of quick peeps through the entrance hole one blue tit thought that a more thorough inspection was required.

He or she really had a good look around in all directions even checking out the view from the entrance. Maybe he or she was trying to work out whether the flight path to the box was suitable or maybe he/she was trying to spot its mate to suggest a joint viewing!

Just hope that our visitor was suitably impressed.

Today was a bit of a disappointment as the only activity was a couple of quick peeks in through the hole. Was this a return visit just to check that no-one else had moved in or was it a completely different bird? No way of knowing!

Just to explain the camera set-up. The camera is situated in the roof of the nest box and so bear in mind that the views are looking down towards the floor of the box. Today saw no action at all not even a quick peep in!

Sunday 27th February 2011

Disappointment was starting to set in after no viewings on Friday and Saturday. Perhaps there was better accommodation to be found elsewhere.

Sunday however at least saw a blue tit peek in, perhaps just checking the box was still open to offers.

I’m not sure who this is peeking inside, probably a blue tit or great tit.
