found this today..

 

To me the first nest looks like that of a whitethroat. Ive found one of these myself this year but the eggs in you pic are alot different.

I cant realy make the eggs out properly, but if i was a gambling man id have a pound on it being a garden warbler .....

Garden Warbler. Their eggs are slightly more heavily marked than a Blackcaps. Looks like a Willow tit going in the hole. Found six Meadow Pipits today whilst walking the moor :whistle: ....but no cuckoo eggs in any of them. :angry:

We probably ignored it because it "only" looks like a Great tit sitting tight. We've got one near to where I work nesting in a post box that's nailed to a tree for the anglers to put their returns in. The hen hisses like hell when you go near her. :icon_eek: Last time I looked she was on 5, all nicely covered over with nesting material. :p
