I've put the nest boxes in at the end of Febuary and they all went mad.
Have Fledged 8 with another 12 in the nest and more on eggs.
Stock from last year failed on their first nests but most had success on their second try.

My yellow first time parents now have four fledglings ( two I have seen poking out of the nest anyway and two out and about ) they appear to be slightly different colours.
I have only had the normal greenbacks before so am not used to any variety in the babies. They seemed to take a long time to fledge but have come out able to fly around nicely and looking qiute developed
