Nest box news

I thought I was doing these birds a favour by leaving in the moss from last year's unfinished nest.  I hoped it would save them a bit of effort but that has proved not to be so.  Mrs BT definitely doesn't approve of the decor and has spent most of the past week clearing it out.  This is how things looked a week ago.

And here she is starting to clear things out.



A day later she had got this far.

And the next day.

And the next.

She does a little dance with her wings outstretched to spread the material and measure the space.

Here is the dance and a bit more removal.



I haven't yet seen her bringing in any new material but I expect she will do soon.
