My house martin family.

The school blue tits have fledged and left the nest.  My housemartins (Martin and Suzie) have just finished their nest so pretty soon they will be laying eggs.

This is the nest a couple of weeks ago and one bird in the nest.

Pair of birds in nest.

Building work in progress, one bird in the nest, the entrance hole is being closed.

All done! See how small the entrance is. This will keep the nest warm and the wind out.  The nest is on a south facing wall so it will be warmed by the sun.

My next door neighbour, Michaela has a nest on the front of her house too.
