Is it safe to come out yet? Peek-a-boo Blue-Tit

Cute :)

Don't blame him for staying indoors!

Me either, Gee.....He was backwards and forwards for a long time

awwww hes so cute looking

Yes he is ... Ray had only recoated the outside and put it back up in the tree a week ago, and he has already pecked all the entrance clean he he he . These birds know what they like and dont like.......

Maybe you'll have babies in there in the spring Milky. Wouldn't that be wonderful.

Hi Milky, hope you are OK. You've soon got residents in the box! By the way, has Ray had a nap lately ; )

We did last year Gilli, so were hoping..........and Dawnsaunt.....Ray, as a matter of fact has just woken up ....ha ha ha ... its 20.46 give him an hour .....he'll be gone again

Great news Milky..getting ready for spring.Is it sited where you have a good view ?

Certainly is Bonkers...its almost facing our back door. Our garden faces North so its sort of facing south/southwest. I can sit outside with my coffee and camera and wait .........brilliant eh....

Looking forward to seeing more pics,,,its great !

Looking forward to seeing more pics too .... x

Oh I,m so pleased , is it early Milky ? I haven,t noticed ours going in and out yet , I will have to keep an eye on them , I have 3 boxes but I can only see one from my kitchen window !

Hi, thought I would share with you ... Lidl have a bird box on sale tomorrow and a robin nest box at £4.88 each along with seed and peanut feeders for something like £1.65. Bargain or what?

Ohh thanks Dawn , we have a Lidl just up the road , I will pop in soon as I can ............

Ours is 20 miles away..so its out with the wood,hammer and nails lol

Sorry Amy, just thought, on sale Thursday - was a day ahead of myself! You can check their website. Not really worth building yourself at that price I wouldnt have thought.

Noooo Dawn !

Ha ha BB - I just can't ask my John to do any bird box building at the mo - he's got to set a 50 foot long hedge when it arrives, I daren't ask him! So, I'll have to go to Lidl or risk divorce, ha ha.

Thanks for letting me know Dawn , we did get two nice new ones the other week , they were on offer at a garden centre £9.99 each if you bought one you had one free , so thats about the same really :o)

We have made some before BB , it,s fun to do something like that and very rewarding when a little bird chooses your very own box to set up home in :o)

I'm interesting in the robin boxes.

Yes Dawn , you must save hubby,s strength for the big jobs , I think I saved to many big jobs for my hubby he is recovering from a Hernia operation that he had xmas week ... lol ...no thats not funny is it !
What kind of hedging are you having ?

Yes Amy, I need his strength, I stack the jobs up for him that I can't manage! Hope your husband is OK after the Hernia op, poor him. I guess he will have lots of jobs waiting for him for when he's recovered, bless.
We're setting a beech hedge.

I have loads of jobs waiting it has been so hard not being able to ask him to help me , it makes you realise how difficult it would be if you were on your own !

I love a beech hedge , lucky you !

I know Amy, I always think that, some jobs are just too heavy. Yes, I've always wanted a beech hedge but I've been impatient in the past and wanted something instant. Should be good for the birds too for nesting and then of course the beech nuts.

Clever photo.
Well done :o)

Thanks TT keep your eye out for his next showing....
