Excellent. How did you get them to hang in an evenly spaced way?

Excellent job Mike, thanks. I couldn't tell the original from the copy at the end of the video.

Cute

Wow👍🏻

Very interesting Mike , lot of hard thinking gone into that , well done . Btw I’ve hit the button lol keep up the good work

love your pond :)

Have a baby vole in my hands trying to comforted her

Mike to give a cleaner hole you can drill from one side. Once your center protrudes flip it over put your hole cutter back in the other side and drill it through. Saves having to clean it up afterwards.

They almost sound like plastic toys in my yard. Going to use my new have a heart trap soon

A very nice bird box, but I don’t have a perch as it assists predators. To facilitate easy cleansing I cut the rear in half crossways. The top rear half is then firmly fixed to the roof and sides, whilst the lower rear half is fixed to the upper half by one or two small hinges. Then fix the bottom half to the floor with a small hasp and staple or the like. This way makes it easy to thoroughly clean the box. What do you think ?

hi Mike i cant find anything on bird box measurement ???????

Thanks mike very helpful,from watching the birds skill fully enter the boxes ,I won’t be putting a peg on mine.but otherwise it’s a great box and I will be copying it.

I’m going to try and apply this to my nesting boxes for chickens. Thanks

So special.

I enjoyed your video tremendously. Great footage and info.👍

Love how you feed the wild robins ❤️. Are there more robins or just this one that comes to you ?

I really like this bird house, particularly the roof style.

thank you very much for dis informative video...Mike Nettleship... Query:NO Query[NQ]…

Mm....Not trying to be mean, but why did you think this would be interesting? lol

Fix the voice

God bless this youtuber and the voles

God bless you!

It's a good idea before assembling, to affix to the inside of the front panel a few twigs leading from the base to the entry hole. This allows the young fledglings something to grip as they make their way to the exit hole. I am confused as to how you affix the box, since you cannot get access to the three holes previously prepared once the front is fastened.

Good video, very thorough. Just written a blog post about this if anyone wants a look www.littlepeckers.co.uk/blog/bird-nesting-boxes/

Your video helped us making our first nest box for house sparrows on our terrace garden in New Delhi.

Cute Little Beasts!!!!! Tenders!!!!

I used to have 4 voles, as kind of pets, I kept them in cages on my porch, garage and just anywhere NOT IN THE HOUSE, my mom wouldn't let me, I do not have them any more, I released two and two died, but I am trying to catch more now.

Hi Mike I have been making similar boxes for many years, it has been a learning curve of do's and don'ts. One of the first things I learned was to make the front apex protrude at least four inches (like a porch), this aids in preventing not only the wind blown rain from entering the nest box, it also helps prevent cats from sitting on top of the box and hooking out any chicks with their claws. I also learned to fit the base inside the nest box about 1cm up. This greatly reduces the risk of water running down the sides and penetrating the nesting area. And lastly, wildlife expert Chris Packham advises never to put any perch on the nest box as this only encourages unwanted visitors to sit and harass any occupants, a nest box really doesn't need one. You can use exterior wood glue (wipe off any excess with a damp cloth)on the four sides as this works like a water seal to help keep the inside as dry as possible. Nice woodworking Mike, I think I will be changing my clamp for a Black&decker Jobber. I had better butter up the Mrs if I'm gonna get yet another handy little tool for the workshop lol

nice pond!

Could you do like an overview of your wall please :)

My grandson found a baby vole after we finished haying our field. Soft old me, am feeding it goat milk and pablum. Destructive as they are, I still intend to raise this critter, but wondered about keeping it as a pet.

Wow, you placed HD cam in that nestbox? :o the best qulity nestbox video i ever seen
