Thank you Squashman67, your clips are fascinating. I thought the camera was going to be blocked off when the nuthatch was adding more mud in the nest.
Hope you are enjoying this website by the way

yes on inspecting the nest box after it was all over I think it was the hen she mudded all the way around the camera as if she new there was about at least 1.5 kilos of mud all the way around the entrance hole and all the way up the inside of the box to the roof she also claimed all the other camera nest boxes chasing all the other would be nesting birds away.I do have 8 othere camera boxes in the garden and some other birds did manage to nest the usual blue tits great tits also woodpecker /tree creeper/wren and robin one robin made a nest in one of my walking boots http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...OBINONBOOT.jpg |

Nice footage, but I don't think you'll get a twitcher rushing to watch a nuthatch
Cheers,

Great video clips. Nuthatches are lovely birds & I enjoy watching them. Robin photo is very cute
Welcome to WAB, looking forward to seeing the next videos.

Just a respectful question, why are videos of nest sites allowed but not photographs ? This is the second video of nesting birds in as many weeks. |
