All quiet on the north eastern front

Work and school have effectively prevented much monitoring of the nest box this week, beyond a few glances at breakfast.  There is no motion detection software that is compatible with our video converter, so until we get some proper action capturing activity will rely on a little bit of luck. 


However, some internet research has warned us to be patient.  Our 27mm hole is perfectly designed for the Blue Tits examining the box on Sunday morning.  We are lucky they were quickly on the case, as they can spend up to five weeks examining a potential home for their offspring.  We should expect occupants around about first day of Spring (21st March), which is almost exactly five weeks after we installed it.  Perfect.


So, the blog will be fairly quiet for a while, but we have everything crossed for the end of March!
