Re: [cayugabirds-l] The Bald Eagle: A Conservation Success Story

Ooh! I wish that was my front porch! I’d happily tolerate the mess during the 
short nestling period (2 weeks), in exchange for the charming natural history 
lesson. Maybe put up a “Please Excuse Our Mess” sign for my human neighbors, 
like a business undergoing refurb.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] The Bald Eagle: A Conservation Success Story

2020-06-15 Thread Linda Orkin
I agree with Asher. If you cannot tolerate purple finches nesting on your porch 
for a few weeks you need to move the whole basket. I cannot imagine how you 
would fasten the nest securely in the tree otherwise. But be aware that it is 
illegal to mess around with an active nest, meaning one with eggs or babies, 
for good reasons,  so I think the best thing you can do for the Purple Finches 
is to spread a tarp under their nest and enjoy them.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] The Bald Eagle: A Conservation Success Story

2020-06-15 Thread Donna Lee Scott
How about putting a small weighted down tarp under the basket to catch any 
droppings later?
Technically it is illegal to move or interfere with a native bird’s nest.

Even after the eggs hatch - for a while - there isn’t too much mess because the 
parent birds carry away the fecal sacks from babies’ droppings and deposit it 
somewhere else far away from porch.
The period of possible “mess” while young birds get ready to fly doesn’t last 
that long. & what a joy to see the growing nestlings!

& please do not water the plant.

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!

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
