As part of the Healthy Ireland 'Keep Well' initiative, Kevin Collins from the Tipperary Branch of BirdWatch Ireland, together with Peter Grant, has produced a step-by-step guide on how to make nest-boxes. This video includes information for absolute beginners on how to make the box, what preservative to use, where to erect the box and how to look after it. Putting up a nest-box in your garden will provide hours of interest for the whole family, as well as providing a safe, warm home for your garden birds and promoting biodiversity.
Please see the link to the video below.
