After the slow start that we saw last year things seem to have picked up in the nest building stakes! The blue tits seem to work as a team with one passing the nesting material to the other. The wing flapping action compresses the nesting down so that once the nest is complete it will be nice and tightly packed thus providing insulation and a soft cushion.

My daughter has a birdbox with a bird-cam as well, so I am very interested in yours.
In hers are a pair of Great Tits, 9 eggs have been laid and now the female hardly ever leaves the nest. Its lovely seeing the male coming in to feed her.
