Existing the nest but not via the entrance hole. They went in and dropped to a lower level to fly out. In this photo the entrance hole is above and to the left of the bird...as in the first photo.It appears to be carrying out bracken.The nest can be seen here.

Thanks,John. As you can imagine, the flying Blue Tit was the hardest to get. Like Sand Martins, they exit the nest in flight and at some speed.

Ps..I think the first is my favourite too. It looks so calm...chilled out...lol.

Thank you, Dale. The first and last are similar. I think the background makes it with the last one.

Thanks,Bob. Looks like the last one has it..:)

Lovely set! I think all our birdboxes have nests in this year and the garden is all a chatter!

Cheers, Dunc..Sounds lovely where you are. We were having our evening meal earlier with the patio doors open and heard a wonderful robin in full voice....it has a mate..they're resident here. so I don't know what it was all about..lol. Also , a Blackbird and a Blue Tit. Seems to be more song about this year.
