Use of a birdhouse from October 2003 till April 2004 |
[ Home ] |
Titmouse's use birdhouses form April till June for raising young one's.
In the autumn en winter the birdhouse is used by titmouses to sleep in it.
Since October, 11th. 2003 a titmouse regulary sleeps in my birdhouse. Every day I check the presence of the titmouse. With a camera mounted in the birdhouse, the presence of the titmouse can be checked easily.
The titmouse now has built a nest, so every night a titmouse is sleeping in the birdhouse. This scheme ends on April 30 th 2004.
