Latest birdbox visit statistics

Here are the latest visit statistics of the bird box. A bird spent the night in the box every night (except New Year's Eve) until January 7th. Since then there have still been frequent visits during the daytime but no roosting at night.

Very recently there have also been fewer visits to the box during the day. I think this is related to the fact that there is less feeding going on around the box. The birds used to feed in the same birch tree where the box is located. Now this has stopped.


The current quiet period gave me the opportunity to open the box and aim the camera again to the bottom of the box where hopefully a bird will make a nest in the spring. I wanted to do this well before the spring so that I don't have to mess with the box when the action (hopefully) starts!
