I spent most of the morning observing the nesting behaviour of the garden birds. In 2 boxes 2 pairs of House Sparrows were returning with nest material. 2 other boxes had 2 pairs of Blue Tits visiting them, but they had no nest material. On Friday a Jackdaw inspected the large nest box, but I didn't see it today. Also, I was pleasantly surprised to find that one of the open-fronted boxes was being used, a pair of Robins have taken up residence and the female is sitting on eggs!
But oddly there has been no sign of Great Tits nesting this year.
