The Nest Box This multi-species nest box is a high quality product that comes with a convenient price attached. The birdbox was manually manufactured from high grade Western Red Cedar (sourced from well managed forests) & they comply to the best quality standards required by the RSPB & British Trust for Ornithology (BTO). The product features a removable front panel with a 32mm entrance hole that makes it an ideal choice for a large range of garden birds such as: Blue Tits Coal Tits Marsh Tits Great Tits House Sparrows Robins (with the front panel removed) Wrens Recent studies have indicated that the entrance hole must feature a certain size in order to attract specific bird species (eg. 25mm for Blue Tits etc.). However, this is not a rule since our extensive experience has proved that a 32mm hole will not deter Blue Tits or other small hole nesting species. RSPB has also agreed with this fact (when we collaborated for producing their branded kit) that a 32 mm hole could actually increase the chances of a pair of garden birds nesting in the box. 32mm & 28mm hole protector plates are supplied to help deter predators. This camera nest box has been created with a small sliding drawer in the apex of the birdbox roof for installing the camera & the other electronic assemblies. A quick release camera mounting bracket comes with the package to maintain the camera in the right position. The camera can immediately be accessed & switched between flyonthewall.uk.com nest boxes in case the user wants so.
