What are Nest Box Records?
Nest Box Records (click link to see example and also see example below) are
running logs you keep for each box in your project.  They let you see at a
glance the history of each nesting attempt in that particular box from start to
finish over the course of a season.

It helps to keep Nest Box Records in a binder with numbered dividers for
each box.  In fact it's a good idea to organize all your project records for a
given year in one binder for easy reference.

Where does Nest Box Record information come from?
This is data you transfer from Box Check Records onto individual Nest Box
Record sheets, plus any remarks, concerns, or speculations you have
regarding that particular nesting attempt.

The Nest Box Record displayed here includes fields for adult age and color,
and for adult and nestling banding data.  A simpler version is also available.
