New Nesting Box being inspected by first time buyers

This year the association has constructed 8 nesting boxes and erected them at various locations around hatchery. We had 2 boxes last year which were successful in producing two families of Blue Tits. This year we have launched Sponsor a Nest Box and so far 5 boxes have been sponsored. The box in the video is sponsored by Jane Kirkwood and as you can see the Great Tits seem very interested in being first time users of this box. Each of our sponsors will be kept informed of how the box performed and if it was occupied. We hope to construct more boxes which will be erected at various locations within the Nethan Valley.

If you are interested in sponsoring a nest box send a cheque or postal order for £2.50p made out to the Nethan Valley Angling Association and send it to Ross Meikle (treasurer) 5 Cedar Crescent, Hamilton, Lanarkshire, Scotland. (please include your e-mail or home address so that we can keep you up to date on box)
