I watched it live this spring :) The takeaway is to feed the rescued chick every 15 minutes or less, and before, you may provide mealworms nearby to help the parents feed better the young chicks so they have higher success rate to grow up and fledge healthy :) Thank you very much for the video, for all the hard work and your care! Best regards from Bulgaria!
Earlier this week I was talking about American birds and how they look far more interesting than UK ones. I think we just get used to what we have around us.
We have a birdhouse full of bluetits right now, they're very loud so i think theyll fledge soon, were keeping a very close eye as we have a ginger Tom cat he's lovely but so predatory, all 5 of us are protecting them😊 just wanted to say thank you for a little glimpse into whats happening in our garden and thank you for caring for thst last baby youre a angel x
Unfortunately the box has stayed empty for the last 2 years although I did have a pair in it looking around 2 days ago, which is very late to start nesting. The weather has been pretty weird this year. I would try and keep your cat in when they fledge, they hop around on the ground for a couple of days and are very vulnerable. A shame for Mr Cat but he can't help do what he does.
@CampCookExplore thank you for the advice 😊 one has fledged today hoping around on the floor, really strong though lots of flapping and gliding, Eddie Cat is locked in for the foreseeable 👍❤️
Hello from Germany, my english is not very good, i hope you understand it. i am absolutly fascinated of your Birdvideos. I wish i could see this live in my Garden. I have many of these Houses in my trees, but i dont know, how to film or livestream this. Above all the livestream ob my tv is nesessary for me. Would you share the name of your Equipment with me? It would be unbelievble! Greetings!
Hello from Scotland! Your English is very good. I have written a guide on how to put the camera box up and stream the video from it on my website, www.campcookexplore.com/exploring/bird-watching-in-aberdeenshire/how-to-install-a-wireless-bird-box-camera/. The company I used don't seem to make the box I used anymore but they have a slightly different one, gardenature.co.uk/pages/wifi-bird-box-camera-system. It's an enjoyable thing to do and reasonably straight forward to do.
They tap the walls with their beaks to check if it's sturdy and measure it out by flapping around. They need the space to flap to make the nest the right shape. It looks really weird!
It is called 'scraping' and seems to be done inside tree hollows as well, seen Kestrels and Barn Owls do it as well. Not sure of the purpose but is usually a sign that they do want to nest in that location. Someone out there probably knows if ya can't find out through google.
Thank You for that! I enjoyed it very much. I like the design of the nest box too. I've made my own nest box too big and the Blue tits are having a time trying to fill it. Thanks again, I know how much time goes into those videos! (y)
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Unfortunately I haven't got birds in the box this year. There are two living in my garden, possibly one of the chicks from this video. Maybe they'll nest next year.
Oh my gosh, this is so adorable 🥰 how big is the hole in the opening? I have one but they struggle to get in and out . Only the wren manages easy in and out . I actually purchased it for my Robins but they not happy inside only sitting on the roof 😆
Thanks! I have a couple of plates for the hole, I used the 28mm one. You can use 25mm for blue, coal and marsh tits. 28mm for great tits, tree sparrows and pied flycatchers. 32mm for house sparrows and nuthatches. Robins like a different style of box with an open front and no entry hole. You get boxes with a detachable front panel so that robins will use it.
@@CampCookExplore thank you for your time. Super , I will measure the one I got . Yeah, I got a different one for my Robins but it’s empty. They too just love sitting on the roof 😆My urban garden sadly doesn’t have a lot of hiding possibilities for them 😬perhaps that is the explanation. I will check out the one you recommend. Your video recording of the blue tits nesting to birthing brought tears in my eyes. So beautiful so precious. God almighty was so creative and generous. Have a blessed day 🙏👌
I looked this up a couple of years ago. It will scare them away. They only use empty boxes so we need to empty them each autumn. They either think the box is already in use or don't trust nests they haven't built themselves. You can leave nesting material a few metres from the box and they will pick it up and use it. I bought some sheep wool, designed for this purpose, and they did use it.
No, none at all. The only birds that went in were blue & great tits. It was a bit of a squeeze for the great ones. I have lots of sparrows but they need 32mm hole, I think.
@@CampCookExplore aye cheers I’m using a green feathers Wi-Fi camera just now but the picture quality in your camera seems better don’t know wher it’s to do with Wi-Fi signal ?
@@del9936 I don't think there's much difference between the cameras. My box has a little window in it that lets more light in. It could be that. This year I setup a WiFi repeater in the garden although no birds have opted to nest. The repeater does make a difference to the stability of the stream.
The box came with two metal plates for the hole. 25 mm is for blue, coal and marsh tits & 28 mm for great tits. I used the 28mm one as I have blue, coal and great tits in the garden.
Tres belle video, nous avons mis le même nichoir on kes voit arrufer et s activer mais on ne voit jamais la nichee s envoler, il faut compter combien de jours environ?Merci à toute personne qui voudra bien m en dire davantage
They'll lay 8-14 eggs, one per day and then start Incubating. Typically it's then about 14 days of Incubating and the chicks leave the nest after 18 days.
Hi, love the video. I'm not an expert but when you look at the footage at 38:32 when parent shows up, one of the chicks swollow something looking like a very big nut. When I saw that the first time before your ending description I said to myself "that is imposible to be diagested by this little fellow". What do you think? Could that be a reason the chick felt unwell?
The sick chick is the one at the back right at that time. I think what he feeds them is a bit of suet from a bird feeder so it would have been soft enough. They can choke on things like peanuts though.
I have a blue tit that comes in and out of my nest box but I’m not sure if l there are eggs as I’ve not got a camera, are there any indicators I could watch for?
You'll see both the parents going in with green caterpillars. Each chick needs about 100 of them a day. If they haven't hatched yet then the mum will be spending all her time Incubating them so you'll see the dad bringing her food.
Maybe the mom or dad fed the baby something that got stuck in its gut. Working digestion and excretion is a huge part of living. I suffer with IBS, so I can tell you that I feel sick just about every day. So, when your flow isn't moving at the right speed, you kinda wish you were dead.
Laughed every time momma bird looked like she was angrily hissing like a cat at daddy bird lol.
Yeah. He was doing his best! The doves were back today. Hopefully we'll see them again.
Wow AMAZING. Got my first year of bluetits nesting in my bird box. Love watching them
Good luck with them. I've not had any takers this year. They are fascinating to watch.
Wow. I simply cannot imagine having that many mouths to feed with only 2 beaks!! That's absolutely impressive!! Thanks for the video!! 🐦🩵
Every time the mother/father comes get food the babies sticks their mouth out ❤
Looks kinda creepy
lovely creatures
One of the best movies I ever watch. Thank you❣

Lovely bird! I am from the U.S. and fell in love with your birds when I visited there!
Earlier this week I was talking about American birds and how they look far more interesting than UK ones. I think we just get used to what we have around us.
I loved the inspection❤❤Geez, they're beautiful birds❤!
They are! Unfortunately not had any take up the box this year. There's two that hang about all day but they aren't nesting.
Птичка из вида синиц называется Лазоревка, по-нашему.
44:14 straight up checked that troublemaker
Yeah, that was behaviour I didn't expect from them.
Thank you for sharing ❤
Thank you for watching. Hopefully I'll have another two doing the same this year.
very very beautiful

Imagine finding this house. Talk about landing on your feet!
What is it doing at 6:04? Checking if the nest is sturdy?
They tap the walls with their beaks to check if it's sturdy and measure it out by flapping around. They need the space to flap to make the nest the right shape. It looks really weird!
Didn't know the bit about using their wings to measure. That is so awesome.
It is called 'scraping' and seems to be done inside tree hollows as well, seen Kestrels and Barn Owls do it as well. Not sure of the purpose but is usually a sign that they do want to nest in that location. Someone out there probably knows if ya can't find out through google.

Why did the female bird scream at the male bird when he comes into the nesting box? Why does she freak out?
I believe in magic.

I love how they keep tufts of fluff on the sides of their head when they are almost fully feathered, it makes them look like baby old men.
I now have the same hairstyle although I look a little less grumpy than they do.
@@CampCookExplore haha nice!
"Look at this place! It looks like it was made for us."
It's fascinating how much they check the box out before they move in.
Can I put straw in my bird house? Will it attract birds or will it scare them away?
I looked this up a couple of years ago. It will scare them away. They only use empty boxes so we need to empty them each autumn. They either think the box is already in use or don't trust nests they haven't built themselves.
You can leave nesting material a few metres from the box and they will pick it up and use it. I bought some sheep wool, designed for this purpose, and they did use it.
🇲🇽🙃
With 28 mm, have you had any problem with the sparrows getting into the nest house?
No, none at all. The only birds that went in were blue & great tits. It was a bit of a squeeze for the great ones. I have lots of sparrows but they need 32mm hole, I think.
В русскоязычном сегменте рекомендуют диаметр летка для больших синиц делать 35 мм, для лазоревок - 28-30 мм.

I've had IBS for 19 years. I get exactly what you mean. Best of luck to you, hopefully you'll get more sickness-free days.
