Natural History Wanderings

National Nest Box Week takes places from 14-21 February 2015 and it’s a chance for you to encourage birds in your garden to come home to roost! Organised by the British Trust for Ornithology, or BTO, the week is an important one for all the brilliant birds we have in the UK, from Robins to Owls!The idea behind the week is to get us all to put up nest boxes in our local areas, not only to protect the wildlife we already have, but to encourage even more birds to brood in our backyards!

At the official National Nest Box Week website, there are lots of hints and tips to get you started, as well as information on how to monitor the box and see what kind of wildlife you’re likely to attract!
