Heavy rain on Monday saw the BirdCam go offline for the day but today it was back in full working order. Unfortunately when the camera came back online, the pictures were less than pleasing. There is only one baby blue tit visible in the nest and regretfully it’s dead. The last few days the number of blue tits fell from the initial 10 to just 5 on Sunday.
Unfortunately the Bank Holiday weather caused the camera to fail at just the wrong moment so it is unlikely that we will know what happened. However, we had noticed that the birds were not growing as fast as expected so we are assuming the adult parents may have had trouble competing with other birds for food.
