The 4 chicks hatched on 4th June, and were ringed, by me, on 10th June.

3 of the young survived to fledging, bringing the total to 8 from this box this year. They were still in the box on 19th June, including this adventurous individual.

The birds fledged on 20th June (Thanks Lydia for the sightings), and spent a short while in the garden, before flying off to who knows where. hopefully, the rings attached will be read somewhere, and I'll get an update on their whereabouts.

Now that the nesting season is over for this box, I'll update the BTO's Nestbox Challenge website. See you all in 2018!!
