....so I'm pretty ignorant on such matters....but a blackbird has built a nest on a ledge just outside my back door. She has laid at least 2 eggs, however it seems that she is not on the nest overnight....only on occasions during the day. Once laid, does she have to be on the nest pretty much 24/7 for the eggs to hatch? or are her prolonged periods of absence (probably due to signs of human activity from the house?) likely to mean they will not hatch?
