We have 3 nest boxes (we did have one on the garage but that's currently undergoing a re-build and the box had to come down before the nesting season) and they are never all occupied at once. This year we have great tits in one. We have had coal tits on 2 occasions and last year the garage box had a family of blue tits. The path down the garden goes alongside the garage so on several occasions I narrowly missed having a bird in me ear as I walk down. They come whizzing in and out of those boxes amazingly fast!

Glad you've got residents at last. They are a great source of entertainment too. Who needs a telly?
