    Here's a little montage which takes us from an empty nest box to first egg. The British Trust for Ornithology has a BlueTit Diary page which sets out their nesting and breeding habits - www.bto.org/understanding-bir... - and states that usually blue tits spend between one and two weeks building their nest. Some even build their nest in only a few days. Our female took between 6 and 7 weeks! Such a perfectionist. It might go some way to explain why this nest was so deep!
    BTW As of the 7th June the parents have been spotted still feeding the fledged chicks in the garden.

    When our large, hairy dog sheds her winter coat, we put the fur in elbows of trees in our woods. We sometimes see a bird flying by with Winnie fur in its beak. It makes us feel good knowing her soft, warm fur is cradling new life.

    We clean our nest boxes out every spring and put in a big handful of cedar shavings as a base layer. It fills much of the void in the box, cutting down on the birds labor. Cedar is also a natural deterrent of lice,mites and insects such as ants which have been known to swarm nests and kill baby birds.

      Yep, it doesn’t get any better than this without going into captivity.
      Compared to a nest in a tree or in the “A” or “b” of a sign, this has many advantages
      1. Protection from the elements. The mother and her children are almost completely protected from precipitation and wind, meaning that they shouldn’t problems fighting the cold. Furthermore, it also protects against storms and inclement weather from damaging or destroying the nest.
      2. Protection from Predators. This is not full protection since a Cat or a Rodent could reach inside, but against larger like birds of prey, this works well. A Hawk or Eagle will be too big to fit through the hole and their legs are likely not long enough to grab the bird, eggs or chicks if they stay at the far corner. It is also very hard to identify as a target for a high flying bird scanning for prey, who may likely see this a just a wooden box unless they see the mother and/or chicks entering/exiting the house.
      3. Structural integrity. A nest in a tree may be damaged or destroyed if the tree branches starts moving, and even if the nest is in intact, the eggs/chicks can fall out in extreme conditions. The house is secured to the trunk of a tree or to an artificial post that ensured that the house stays still, even in suboptimal weather. And because it is contained and rigid, the nest and it’s occupants should remain safe even if the mount moves.

You don't have to worry about any babies falling out or getting thrown out in rejection. They also have plenty of room to move around and play. They stay out of the elements and that keeps them warm and dry. I didn't know how long it took to build a nest though. I definitely gained more respect for the process and building of their nests.

      @@nathanielpatterson6963 they put fur or fibrous material they can find on top to act like insulation to trap heat in the vegetation they gathered, essentially using their body heat to warm the entire floor and thus incubate the eggs effectively. Its basically like the greenery is a mattress and the animal fur is like a thick blanket or comforter that allows you to trap your body heat.
