I will post the progress of the bird box here especially for John 

These snapshots were taken today, as you can see the eggs are still there and mum is still sitting on them

A bumper crop John 

Comin' on now

It will be great to see eggs and then some chicks 

Can't wait 

That's exactly what we are waiting for John

Here's the current photo in the box.



As you can see the nest is coming along nicely. We just hope they use it this year, last year they started the nest then abandoned it, apparently that's what they do, they start 2 nests then just choose 1. This one looks further on than last years so keeping fingers crossed

OK.... but 

Is it Side or Rear drive ?

Ahh I see what you mean. Here is a screenshot ...side paddles. I quite like the idea of the rear paddles though could make for an interesting build in regards to the drives for the paddles as you would have to have 2 different drives so the paddles could operate independently in order for it to steer

Interesting

I think it's driven through it paddles. I bought I quite a while ago as it was cheap but haven't opened the box yet.
