It's the time of year to make sure that garden birds have plenty of homes ready for spring by putting up a nest box in the garden.
It’s estimated that each year around two million birds fledge from nest boxes.  There’s an array of shapes and sizes to choose from, depending on the species you are providing for.

Don’t forget, young birds are fed literally thousands of insects (mostly caterpillars) while in the nest. If you are encouraging a feathered family into your garden remember that this goes hand in hand with gardening for insects too with plenty of flowers that will attract them.
