The entrance hole to the nest box was made at the size recommended in various guides, but it seems this chap wants a grander entrance; looking at the size of the bird, I can understand why as it does not look as if he will be able to get into the existing hole (5cm diameter). He's probably carrying a bit of lockdown excess weight as am I!
AKA - (Six acres and not a clue!) My personal diary of the comings and goings of wildlife during the development of my little piece of England. '...There shall be in that rich earth a richer dust concealed; A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware, Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam; A body of England’s, breathing English air, Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.' (R. Brooke)
