Support Nesting Birds with the Right Bird Box

Putting up a bird box in your garden is one of the easiest ways to help wild birds find a safe place to nest. With natural nesting sites in trees, hedgerows, and old buildings disappearing, many species, including blue tits, great tits, sparrows, robins, and wrens, rely on man-made bird boxes to raise their young. A well-positioned box provides protection from predators and harsh weather, giving birds a better chance of successfully breeding and raising healthy chicks. Different species have different nesting preferences, so choosing the right box—whether a traditional hole-fronted design or an open-fronted box for robins and wrens—can make all the difference.

To encourage birds to use a nest box, place it in a quiet, sheltered location, ideally facing north or east to avoid direct sunlight and strong winds. Keeping feeders topped up with high-energy food like suet, sunflower hearts, and mealworms, along with providing fresh water nearby, will create a bird-friendly environment that supports parents as they raise their chicks. By installing a bird box, you're not just offering birds a place to nest—you’re actively helping to protect and support Britain’s declining garden bird populations.
