stealthy1 3,964 Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Good work J.D, I can see these nest sheets in garden centers next Spring Quote Link to post Share on other sites
"Earth!" 503 Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 well done pal..think you should get yourself a good women though as the public may think you a little odd constantly creeping into the woodland,no doubt looking over your shoulder so no one is following with a camera in your hand. the wood around here have alot of tree creepers,not found a nest,probally because ive not looked but ive been trying to find a jays nest and failing.thought theyd be easy to find as theres 100's of them.

J Darcy 5,871 Posted May 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 Earth, you dont have to worry about my marrtial status... I would look for Jays in silver birches and willows mate, looks like a slightly bulkier pigeons nest and you can often see their tails as she sits tight... I have found most 10-20 foot high, but they do, of course, nest higher and lower. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
