What is Nest Box Challenge?

Blue Tit chicks. Photo: Richard CastellPutting up a nest box is great fun; however the fun is only just beginning! To get the most enjoyment out of your nest box, take part in Nest Box Challenge (NBC) on-line.  You can do your bit to help the BTO monitor the breeding success of birds in Britain's green spaces by recording the activity of the adults and the contents of your nest box at regular intervals during the breeding season

New decade- new NBC!

This year, as well as monitoring your boxes, you can also tell us about the other nests that you find in your garden/local green space, such as Woodpigeons and Blackbirds. So remember to look out for breeding activity in your trees and hedges this year too!
