We are having our 3 story very tall 110+year old house painted. The painter found a bird nest in the very top decorative bracket at the roof tip. There were 5 baby birds in the nest, newly hatched. There was no way to work around them. He tried moving the nest to a nearby tree (in a hanging bucket) in hopes the parent birds would find it and take care of the chicks. Unfortunately, they did not, and the little birdies didn't make it past the second day.

Bad timing for the birds. Any other year, they would have been perfectly safe up there.
