There is continued Nest Building in Box 1 today as both birds continue to bring in lots of material from the garden. Both the male and the female often sit on the bird box wires outside box 1 and check before they enter with their beak full of moss, checking that no-one (except the cameras!!) is watching. There is quite a definite shape to the nest now and the nest cup can be seen right at the back of the box in the centre. Last year, the nest cup was a bit further forward but we are not sure if these birds are related to last year in any way!
