It’s National Nest Box Week (NNBW) next week and Northumberland Wildlife Trust is encouraging everybody to install a nest box in their area and give the region’s precious birds a home.

National Nest Box Week, celebrated each year from 14 - 21 February, is an initiative designed to encourage people to help provide homes for birds by putting up nest boxes in gardens, on balconies, in parks, and in open spaces.

As the natural nest sites on which many of our birds depend, such as holes in trees and buildings, are fast disappearing and gardens and woods are ‘tidied’ and old houses are repaired, more and more birds are relying on humans for help.
