I wonder if the junco that built this nest in my wreath on my front door is the same one that had the nest attacked out at the coop. Of course now I'm going to have keep this wreath up until the chicks fledge...

Much to the Princess's chagrin, house finches have raised two broods in a Christmas wreath on our front porch.

Good Morning! I love the places birds choose to nest. At the little Bible camp I help out at, there is an old metal A-frame swing set. Just a little backyard style one. The tiny house wrens would nest in the joints of the frame, and then dive-bomb anyone who came close to it! (I’ll confess to being highly entertained, watching unsuspecting victims walk past the swing set.) We finally had to put Foam-O-Fill where the pipes meet to discourage them from nesting there.

Our Christmas wreath is still hanging on the wall as we come in from the mudroom. DW keeps misting it, we are surprised it didn't drop all the needles long ago.

I got a delivery today.
Left on the front porch... like usual.
I opened the door to go get it while the dogs were out back going potty.
I bent over and grabbed the boxes and was about to close the door when motion in the living room caught my eye.
Motion? The dogs are outside.
There on the edge of my area rug sat the bewildered looking junco mom. Oh goody. I get to chase a junco out of the house. Please don't poop all over my kitchen!
As I was trying to flush her out, she crashed into the patio door (close the curtain) then the living room window (close THAT curtain) then Bella started up the front steps to come in. CRAP! Close the door in her face.
Chase junco back out of the kitchen. She lands on my living room chair. I slowly get to the door and get it open then I back away. She makes her break for it and out she goes.
What a PITA!
