Wow; that's incredible! As Holly said, in the States, especially in the sprawling suburbs (which is a good part of the east coast), they are uncommon. ... ...
Actually it's the result of an alien species finding itself in a world without predators and not much competition. It's not a specialist predator itself,...

Holly, You can take the nest down - chances are no other bird will use it and it would be too decrepit to be used by next spring. Birds often build more than...
My only reluctance to take it down was the thought that another bird might use it as shelter during a storm this summer. Do you think there is a high chance...
