A small European Blue Tit with blue and yellow markings clings to the tiny round entrance to a round white nesting box, topped with a green lid, that has been fixed to a large tree. Other tree branches are seen to the left and some sky shows through on a sunny day. Camera: iPhone 15 Pro

I’m not sure if this qualifies for today’s #SmallBirdSaturday theme from Jane @javajanegallery.co.uk
of #LittleBirds - the
young ones - but maybe it counts as it is a wee Blue Tit, sussing out accommodation this week for new arrivals.

Bluetit sleeping in our box during this bitterly cold spell. Wish I had insulated it with something now.

The superb backdrop of Nólsoy’s huge Storm-petrel colony, hosting upwards of 250,000 pairs. Initial checks of our study #nestboxes show a slightly late season, with some birds incubating but many pairs yet to lay. Amidst the numerous #MarineHeatwaves in N Atlantic, I wonder how the season will be…

It's not too late to still put up a nest box, these boxes are sponsored by members of the public or businesses. Why not sponsor a nest box today visit www.restorehabitat.uk #birds #birdboxes #nestboxes #conservation #helpingbirds #helpingnature #wildlife #restorehabitatuk #CheshireUK

A maintenance check on one of my pied flycatcher sites today. They’d had a bit of battering this winter so some needed replacing. #atlanticrainforest #bto #nestboxes #spring

The #metalbirds have returned and the #nestboxes are up again.

I'm not holding out much hope that violet-green swallows will find my boxes, but hopefully the chickadees will use them.
