Starling Nest 2023

 The Starlings arrived back in the nestbox on the side of our house again this year and laid their first egg on 8th April. 4 eggs were laid and incubation began.


The chicks hatched on 23rd April, and grew well. I ringed them (under licence) and today, when I checked the box, all four of the birds had successfully fledged.

The nest details were logged as part of the BTO's Nest Record Scheme.
