Bird Box “Honeysuckle House”
This is a live feed from our birdbox, nestled in a honeysuckle bush. We set it up back in 2021 and to our amazement, blue tits moved in, laid eggs and fledged in 2021 and 2022. Sadly no one moved in permanently during 2023, something spooked them during nest building. 2024 we had two blue tits move in and 6 chicks hatched, but sadly all passed over night due to a shortage of the caterpillars they eat had been washed off the trees, due to excessive rainfall.
2025 – We’ve got great tits moving in and building a nest; Victoria & Albert. Fingers crossed.

Watch as all six chicks fledge the nest, some quicker than others. A fascinating watch, to see them all take their first leap! Just imagine that.
More chatty chicks, and someone looks like he/she might go flying soon!!!![]()

Yes, that damn cat’s back, but this time the defences deterred it. However, since it might come back again, we’ve covered the top of the house with nice spi…
Despite yesterday’s attempt by a cat to grab the chicks, all are well, and rather chatty 🙂![]()
