Minnie the Moocher Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 This little chap (and OH!) have taken up residence right outside my kitchen window, in a nestbox atop my bird table which had been up less than a week. It's been fascinating watching them take nesting materials and moss in through the entrance, and I can't wait to see what happens next...

Seagazer Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Lovely photo, I hope they have lots of little babies. My neighbour has some nesting in his garden and they're lovely to watch. Such busy little birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 How lovely. A pleasant distraction when washing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I agree, how lovely. We've just seen next doors cat eat a newly hatched blackbird straight out the nest The nest is within easy reach of the top of the fence so if any of the other eggs hatch the chicks won't stand a chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The walk in run is now under it. We did have blue tits cleaning it out the other weekend but unfortunately a new cat in the area realised it could sit on the roof under it , so the blue tits haven't been back Hope you have fun watching yours Minnie the Moocher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
