Thanks Kumiko, Varied Sittellas are quite rare and nesting records of these birds are vital, especially reasonably close to the city like this one.
User's notes
One on nest for a short time. Actively collecting spider web.

Thank you, natureguy and Waltraud :)
It was such a beautiful area. I hope that they have a successful breeding season.
