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.
We have created a Facebook page to make it easy to share and follow their journey https://www.facebook.com/HoneySuckleBirdHouse.

Some sad news to report. We woke this morning to see all chicks had died overnight. Looking at the footage, 5 chicks went to bed fidgeting as usual, until around 3:30 when 1 of them passed, with the others all passed by 4am.![]()

Scanning the footage shows no intruders, so can only assume they ate something poisonous. Maybe the wrong insect or insects who had eaten insecticide. ![]()
