| | | Advice Please, Internal nest boxes for sparrows
Hi there guys I'm after a little advice if that's OK?
I live in an area where the houses are about 55-65 years old and there are lots of nest sites for House Sparrows in peoples roof spaces via rather decrepit fascias! However residents are upgrading at a rate of knots and I fear we are going to lose our colonies.
I currently don't have aby birds nesting in my roof space but we are replacing our fascias soon and I would like to add internal nestboxes. I'm sure I've seen them somewhere (might have been SpringWatch???) but I can't seem to find any info on them now. Can anyone help? I do have Sparrow Terraces up but they seem to prefer to use a roof...
Thanks |

Hi Jerboa Welcome to WAB
No you didn't imagine them 
Try this RSPB link The RSPB: Advice: Nestboxes for the roof
Hope it helps.
