I have seen more nesting blue tits this year the I ever have, its still good to hear you put out a box even if it wasn't successful this time round Micheal.

I have a blue tit nest in a ventilation hole just outside the kitchen window. In the morning, I can hear the young ones, impatiently waiting for their (tenth?) breakfast while I'm eating mine :-)

I have a woodpecker in my garden which is lovely - love the goldfinches and yes I am lucky I have a lot of bluetits - not sure why - but they are intriguing

Lovely poem Mike

Bluetits huh? Well, I think your problem starts with the fact that their tits are blue. That means they are cold so they search for the tiniest of places to squeese those nipples into to warm them up so they get nice and pink. Now, look carefully, if you see a pink tit follow it and you'll see how big a hole you'll ave to make in your box. See, nipples don't have feathers so thats the only part you have to worry about sheltering.
