Last year we were lucky enough when a robin moved into a nestbox. This year long tailed tits have built a nest a few feet away in a tangle of clematis and jasmine. The nest takes about 3 weeks to build, both birds are involved in nest building. They use feathers, moss, hair, lichen and spider webs as building material. It looks like they are going to be finished soon - the nest will have a roof with a small opening just below.
