RE: purple finch nest WAS: [cayugabirds-l] The Bald Eagle: A Conservation Success Story

2020-06-15 Thread Rustici, Marc 
Correction….   Thanks for asking…. It is a house finch…

Thanks for all the advice.  I am thinking moving the flowers might be the best 
solution for my wife….  I doubt I will convince her to not water the flowers 
and not sure the finch would like losing her hiding place and being exposed…  I 
guess we will need to be careful so all are happy.

Interesting about the “laws”….  I had no idea and I am guessing that would be a 
great jeopardy question not many people would get correct….  We should be so 
fortunate to have the same respect and laws for people…….

Thanks to all for the comments.

Marc

Good Morning,

I am hoping someone can tell me or direct me to some information, please.

We have some purple finches nesting on our front porch in a hanging basket.  I 
saw they have laid eggs.  My wife wants them gone (I am the softee..) as they 
make quite a mess when the young hatch…It was suggested I move the nest to 
an very nearby weeping birch (where they perch).

Is this a viable option?

Wish I could hear this Chris but have eschewed zoom. It's a great story 
nationwide. I had the honor of being the first survey and banding crews in the 
Chesapeake Bay Region back in the early 70s. These were done by a group called 
the Raptor Information Center under the aegis of The National Wildlife 
Foundation. We based in the DC/MD area and worked the watershed of three 
states. A handful of nests in the whole area and very low reproduction rate at 
the beginning. Climbing into an eagle nest was amazing and locked me into 
ornithology for life and a new career field. It is so satisfying to see the 
tremendous increase in these terrific birds with the less than ferocious voices!

Best,
John

The Bald Eagle: A Conservation Success Story

A symbol of national strength and unity, the Bald Eagle has also become a 
parable for nature's unshakable ties to humans. Estimated to have numbered 
100,000 in pre-colonial times, shooting, cutting of forests, and finally 
pesticides, took a toll on the bird, bringing it to the brink of extinction by 
the early 1960's. Join Montezuma Audubon Center Director Chris Lajewski to hear 
the conservation success story of our national bird and learn how the Montezuma 
Wetlands Complex played an important role in bringing the bird back from the 
brink. Fee: $10/person. Click

your confirmation email.
