Avian warfare



It looks as though we’re getting set for avian warfare.

Why do I say this?

Yesterday I looked out of the kitchen window at our nesting box. For some time now a blue tit has been making regular visits, clearly anticipating it to be a new home for the coming offspring. However, yesterday I noticed a house sparrow looking around the same potential nest site. They won’t want to share home so I wonder which will win, the blue tits or the sparrows. Or is the sparrow just thinking of borrowing (stealing) some of the nesting material? I shall watch on.
