It looks like a little fluffy ball, I cant tell which end is which though! Do you clean out your birdboxes in the winter Richard?

Is that a nest box camera Richard or did you just have a sneaky peak? Must look in our nest box camera to see if anything roosts in there.

However, this morning I got up the ladder and did the business !!

We have three nest boxes on our wall, and for several weeks the sparrows have been popping in and out of them.
