Hi All,
I have one of those sunsetter awnings on my deck that you crank out by hand. I noticed last Spring that on both sides of the awning in the mechanism, under the fabric, finchs made nests there. I noticed that if I crank out the awning, it would disrupt both nests on each side, so I had to deal without out it for almost the whole summer.
So now, in the cold weather here in PA, I see the finches there making nests again, or just cleaning it up getting it ready. Don't they take a break?
Would it be mean of me to remove the 2 nests and block the way in somehow? I thought they made nests in the Spring. I have several birdhouses and feeders in my yard, but I would like to remove these 2 nests that were put together in my awning last year. I don't want another Summer of not using my awning.
Thanks
