Abstract
Nest-box colonies of tits lend themselves to detailed study—not just because the nests are in known locations and accessible, but also because of the tolerant disposition of the occupants. Here are given details of the impact of various predators on eggs and young over a ten-year period in a Kentish oakwood.Keywords
