Too many mistakes in my previous post, sorry.
If you plant for zebra (black and/or white tulips), the tulips will turn into precious stones eventually, and you will be able to attract jackdaws and magpies. The plus is that in the next round, with this nest you can attract jackdaw and magpie chickies! Namely, you can also build nests by duckies, phoenixes for examples, but you want to make sure that you build nests with birds that are listed in the "chicks" section in the wildlife (WL) - so that you would be ablet to attract all the chickies and fill in the pictures.
My advice would be, once you are set up for a particular bird, make sure that it adds to at least two of your nests. So put out the first nest, and make the birdies to help build it, so to fill one spot in the nest. Then remove the unfinished nest in the storage, put out another nest in the garden, and let the same birdies fill one spot in this second unfinished nest too.
Apart from precicous stones, bellies are a good choice to plant, as they become RFH rather quickly (at their RFH stage they gwoth in butterflies, or as the WL says - insects), and as such they can help attract wrens, yellow wagtails, chaffinches --- these are all birdies that will help to build your nests, AND they all on the "chickies list" -- so you can later attract wren chickie, YW chickie etc.
Good luck!
