    Just a quick note to let you know that as of 23rd Jan the bird has returned and is sleeping in the box once again. The livestream may still be running depending when you are reading this. You might be able to find it here:

      maybe a bad play there, a neighbor had a bird box with similar spikes on it, and the cat from the house across the road from them got injured while climbing on it, the owner of the cat successfully took the birdbox owning neighbor to court and claimed vet expenses plus unnecessary distress, there are other ways to protect the box from cats, especially with how vindictive people can be nowadays

    Hello bird friend,
    I'm from Munich, Germany, and for more than 10 years I take care for about 25 nist boxes. I'd like, if I may, to give you an advice for your nist box design. The distance from the bottom to the lower edge of the entrance hole should be at minimum 17 cm, better 20 cm, so predators like cats cant reach down to the chicks, even when the nest is stuffed with nesting material. Also I fixed most of my boxes on long roof laths, minimum 2.5 m, so it's very difficult for cats to climb them. If you want to, you can provide the boxes, after the autumn cleaning, with dry hay or moss to get the birds a more comfortable place for the night.
    bye and good luck for your fluffy friends

Made a lot of noise on the roof. It was a good half hour before he gave up & the bird was able to fall back to sleep. Glad to see the outside of the bird box & realize there's no way for the cat to get in. 👍🥂

      This reminds me, this time i looked out the window and noticed my cat up on top of one of the bird houses out back, digging his paw around in there getting all into it. So i tapped the window and he knew he was busted, froze up looking towards the house. When i went outside he was sitting on the ground trying to look innocent like nothing going on here. As i got up close to him though he suddenly sprinted away.
      Little jerk. Eh well he was just being a cat. He never did that again though, probably knew that we could be watching at any time, he wouldn't know.

    As a cat lover I just want to say: this is why you should keep your cats inside. Cats are an invasive species in 85% of the world. They are responsible for decimating the local fauna of any place they live. Our fluffy feline friends are apex predators with very limited predators above them on the food chain especially in urban environments. Unless you have a barn with a mouse problem you probably shouldn’t have unsupervised outdoor cats. You can leash train a cat or build a catio if you want your cats to have outdoor time which will help native bird populations recover.
    Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

    • @allthumbs3792
      @allthumbs3792 Před 2 lety +25

      100% agree! Not only is keeping cats indoors important for birds/local fauna but any vet will tell you your cats will be safer, healthier and live longer indoors. My two cats are given plenty of inside stimulation and toys. But for windows, they have never known the outside, and they don't miss what they don't know! No cars, no diseases, no dogs, no poisoned rodents, no coyotes. I don't love the cat box but I do love and respect my cats.

      @@Shaun137 cat bell collars only make a very minimal difference because cats are ambush predators. Depending on the style of hunting your cat prefers, you will be saving 50% of their prey at maximum, and as little as 2% at minimum. I’m glad you love your cats, but please keep them indoors. Outdoor cats live half as long as indoor cats, and are responsible for significant devastation of wildlife. Keeping them inside is good for cats and for other animals as well. Humans are destructive. Letting cats go outside is just one of the ways we prove that every day.

Clever to cover the box on the roof because there is no doubt the cat would return to try again and probably bring another feline friend as well. Cats are determined.

В России это нормально. У всех есть домашние кошки. Они необходимы, иначе мыши сожрут деревянный дом. Особенно зимовать эти грызуны пытаются проникнуть во все постройки, которые есть на участке. Есть сарай для инструментов, гостевой домик и дровник. Есть подвал для хранения продуктов. Мыши будут хозяйничать повсюду, если не истреблять их на участке. Никто в посёлке не держит кошек в доме. Также появляются одичавшие кошки, они плодятся сами по себе, не все выживают, особенно зимой. Морозы бывают до -25 С и снег лежит до метра. Не знаю, как, но часть кошек выживает. Я их вижу круглый год! Абсолютно дикие. Пыталась приручить маленькую кошечку, прикормила, схватила, занесла в дом, она сошла с ума, бросалась на стены и чуть не выбила окна... Опасные когти, нельзя брать в руки. Вокруг лес. Кошки кроме мышей, ловят и жрут птиц. Видела, поймала прямо на лету! Также большой дикий кот, породы "домашний", может легко задушить зайца. Есть желание попробовать такого поймать и отвезти к ветеринару, чтобы кастрировать? Даже если получится, для дикого кота в природе - это смерть. Заодно кастрируйте ещё лисиц, они ведь тоже ловят и едят птиц.

    I've always thought that hole is far to close to where chicks would be. Especially after nesting material goes in and raises it towards the hole even more.

      It’s at the recommended RSPB height - around 15cm. No predators have been successful at getting at any of the birds or chicks so far. We’ve had cats, blackbirds, magpies and woodpeckers try and fail
