Still Investigating

A few mornings ago a Great Tit investigated the camera nestbox. An hour later these Blue Tits spent about four minutes checking it out.



Nothing more until this morning when a pair of Great Tits made a short visit. No sign of a 'nest box shuffle' from either species. That is when the female spreads her wings and shuffles round the bottom of the box as though checking it is the right size for nest building.

  2. They look at the camera a bit, can they see their reflection in the lens? You are certainly getting a lot of interest in your nesting box!

    1. Ellen: They can probably see some light reflecting from it and possibly sense the bit of heat from the electronics in the camera.
