Nest Boxes in 2011
Chard Reservoir Nature Reserve Woodland Nesting Boxes. 2010/11 The volunteers have finished cleaning, repairing and recording the nesting boxes erected in the woodland. A total of 91 boxes are in place. 88 of these are small species boxes. 65 boxes contained nests, mostly Tits. The remainder of the boxes had evidence of roosting. 4 boxes were used by Nuthatch. 3 boxes are large owl boxes and remain unexamined. Evidence of dormice nests in seven boxes.
