Bird Block | Nest Box
The Green&Blue Bird Block nest box is designed to encourage nesting for smaller garden birds like blue tits. It can be built into the walls of new buildings or fixed to existing walls using the rear fixing points.
Creating space for wildlife is helpful for nature and rewarding to watch. Blue tits will nest in our gardens and on our buildings and will provide hours of entertainment!
Blue tits typically have one large brood, some of which may fail to hatch. This is normal and why they have so many eggs. During the nesting season, typically April to May, both the male and female birds will return to the nest to feed the young.
The Green&Blue Bird Block nest box can be built into new buildings or fixed to the surface of walls using a fixing kit. The block must be at least 2 metres from the ground, ideally on a north or east facing wall and positioned away from doors, windows and vents to prevent disturbance.
The beautiful Bird Block nest box is designed and made in Cornwall using 75% recycled materials, features a small entrance space to deter larger birds and predators, rear fixing points so you can fix to a wall, and is a standard UK block size.

Sustainability at Green&Blue
Excuse the pun, but sustainability isn't just a buzz word for us at Green&Blue, it's embedded in the business decisions we make and every thing we do.
These are just some of the areas of business where we focus attention to be the most sustainable we can be;
Product -
The Green&Blue range is entirely British made - meaning visible supply chains and low product miles. We have worked with the same suppliers since the business was started back in 2005.
The Green&Blue range is designed to last for many years and we do our best to support our customers with repairs or replacement parts where any issues do arise.
The concrete range is made within our own Cotswold workshops, creating local employment and giving us full control. We use 75% waste material from the Cornish china clay industry within our concrete and are constantly reviewing material developments and processes to ensure we are using the best material we can.
Workshop -
We look forward to updating you soon on how we make sure our offices and workshops are running as sustainably as possible.
Packaging -
The Shred project , which Wildcare acquired with the purchase of Green&Blue in 2023, enables us to remove virgin grade packaging materials from our dispatch process - and allows us to work with our local community to remove recycling and to extend the useful life of cardboard.
Our boxes are UK sourced and made from FSC certified cardboard.
Our wraps and printed literature are printed with a print supplier who work from a state of the art sustainable building, and who are a carbon balanced printer, winner of the 'UK environmental company of the year' at the PrintWeek Awards.
We don't rest on our laurels and that is our promise to you. Sustainability is a journey with no end, and as we learn, as we question and as we grow we will keep this commitment at the heart of everything we do.
If you have any questions, any ideas or any feedback then please get in touch with our team, we can do more together than we can apart.
