whats a good mounting height on a tree ?
is there a recomended height ?

just as a matter of interest how come i never see any baby wood
pigeons ,they are always fully grown . ??
curious........

i have put up one nest box and a pair of sparrows have appeared .
first time for ages i have seen any sparrows.


Size and shape of opening need to be considered - Blue Tits can use
smaller holes than Great Tits, Robins prefer an open front. House
Sparrows like to nest in small groups - a box with several separate
compartments will be very attractive.
