Great Tit Nestbox

For those who cannot see the streaming video from Camstreams here is a short piece of video I captured this morning:



If you are having problems viewing the Camstreams live video they have a help page here.

  1. Unfortunately, I only have a white space showing on the iPad where the video should be :-( I'm glad the Great Tits are progressing well though. Anyway, I have been able to watch the video with the Song Thrush and thoroughly enjoyed it. I don't hear them in my garden anywhere near as much as I used to. I think probably the Blackbird has the loveliest, most melodic song but for sheer enthusiasm and a slightly comical sound the Song Thrush is my favourite, it really is a joy to hear :-) Thank you for cheering up a very grey day John.

    1. Jan: Thanks for letting me know. I had put the video on Photobucket and hadn't checked on the iPad. I have now uploaded it to YouTube and that works OK.

  2. Thanks John, so glad I came back :-) I really enjoyed seeing 'your' little ones, they're so sweet but how vulnerable they look, I do hope all continues to go well for them. I am always amazed by how wide they can open their beaks :-)

    1. Pleased you could see it Jan. They are very dependant on a pair of healthy parent birds fetching lots of food.

  3. ooo! :) was able to view babies today :) Gosh aren't they cute!

    I can hear baby English house sparrows cheeping away in my houses. I love it when they grow tired of calling and the peeps become less and less, and quieter, then only one lets out a little peep.

  4. Watched it that time! Interesting how the birds line their nests with fur, hair or moss. I bet that is dog hair!

    1. It probably is dog hair Matron. A couple of doors away is an alsation. When the owner grooms her there is always a pile of what looks like wool which I'm sure all the local birds use.

  5. I find the nests in my garden are lined with dog hair! I've seen birds pecking the hair from the cracks in the patio.

    1. Matron - I thought I'd replied to this. Yes. Last year I could see Bobby's hair in there.
