Day 8 of the #30DaysWild takes a look at a Blue Tit nest we found at my partner’s parents house.

For the last few years a bright red Royal Mail nest box has been up on the house waiting for a two birds to move in and start a family. This year was the first year that a couple of Blue Tits decided it was the perfect place to make home.

When I heard of the family the next time we visited I took my camera with me and watched the nest box to see what was happening.

The Blue Tit parents were doing a good job! They were constantly back and forth with food to the nest. Although we can’t see the contents of the nest we can hear the young when their parents arrive home with food.

Here are some photos I managed to get of the nest.

I’m hoping to go back and visit the nest site again this weekend to see if they are still there. Fingers crossed we get some good weather and I haven’t missed them fledging!
