Hello #Hedgewatch
For #NationalNestBoxWeek Brock’s making sure there’s plenty of suitable nest boxes at HQ. He’s left out a buffet of natural nesting materials too. He says he wants to create his own ‘tweet street’, how cute is that?

Within 10 years a single nest box can provide shelter for 100 baby blue tits! Help birds during #NationalNestboxWeek by putting up a bird box – or leave out some nesting materials such as moss, twigs and natural wool.

This #NationalNestboxWeek, remember not all birds nest the same way!

Here's a few options to get you started...

Robins and Wrens like to keep hidden, tucking their nests away in dense cover.

An open-fronted box placed low down and out of sight is just their style.

🪺Watching #birds use nest boxes in your garden is exciting and a chance to contribute to important science! 🐦

If you can peek inside your nest box or have a camera set up, track the birds' progress and submit your observations to: www.bto.org/nest-monitoring

On #NationalNestBoxWeek it was also timely to hear about a Barn Owl (picked up wet/water-logged by a farmer in Wressle) that was kindly dried out overnight and successfully released the following morning, as it now lives to tell (hunt) another day 🦉

Unfortunately, we don’t have such an event in Poland, so we’re joining #NationalNestboxWeek abroad!

Good morning #Hedgewatch Team. It's still cold, but dry, so Brock decided to show baby Rupert the beauty of the woodland behind HQ. They’re going to have a little picnic and while out there, are checking more nests as it's still #NationalNestBoxWeek.
What are you up to? 🌳💚

Here’s how to keep yours in top shape every season...

Great task with our volunteers at our NNR Base earlier this week (building our new pre-release pens for our Corncrake reintroduction project) - it might be a bit of a stretch for #NationalNestBoxWeek 😆, but we are hoping to provide these special birds with a temporary 'home' in the #LDV 🐤

Hello #Hedgewatch!
Brock’s been repairing nesting boxes & putting up new ones. As it’s #NationalNestBoxWeek he’s also putting a buffet of nesting materials out for the birds to choose from. If you’d like to find out more here’s a link;

Brock‘s left some snacks out if you’re passing!

No need for the romance to be over just yet! ❤️ This is the time when birds will start their courtship. To celebrate #NationalNestboxWeek why not spend this weekend getting a nestbox ready for your garden birds.

Here are some tips and tricks for the perfect set up.

Unfortunately, like many sites across the country, Barn Owls in the #LDV now rely heavily on nest boxes - 89% of pairs used them in 2023, up from 47% in 2000, & with ash dieback reducing natural sites, boxes are vital, so we're doing what we can to help out #NationalNestBoxWeek 🦉🪺🔨🪛

🪹 National Nestbox Week has begun, with many birds already on the lookout for their nest sites.

As part of #NationalNestBoxWeek Lorna has donated one of three log baskets from our garage for another owl basket on Dungeness

The wired thing is - we don’t have an open fire in our house - so not sure why we have three let alone one log basket?

Donated pillow for some of the feathers as an extra
