After a couple days my truck was getting hammered with ‘bird droppings’. Crazy how the birds kept finding my car. I approached my number one Buddy Bobby (hubby) on the ever nagging issue and with a little thought he figured it out. It appears that the birds decided to build their nest right over the hood of my truck making my life a bit miserable. Seriously, my hood was completely covered in mess! As much as I love birdies, bird houses, bird feeders, bird baths and such… I did not appreciate the ever growing mess on my truck each day.
Bobby in all his problem solving skills thought about calling someone to have that branch removed from the tree. With further thought he launched the idea of using the hose to free the newly designed nest from the tree. I was worried about there being eggs in the nest but the nest was no more than 2 days old so Bobby went for it!
In no time the nest came tumbling down and we were so thankful that the mommy had not laid her eggs in the nest. I’ve been able to keep my car clean and the precious birdies have found another spot to nest. Now we are all happy campers!
Problem solved. 🙂 Hopefully the little birdy can find a more convienent spot to nest next time!
We kept knocking one down over our porch light b/c the poop was falling all over the side of the house, and they kept rebuilding. Finally, we left it alone, they used it for a season, and never came back. Whatever they are, they won’t reuse a nest, so we’ve had an empty nest occupying that spot for the last few years!
Aw… Glad you were “rid” of their mess without any damage to their family 😉
Your blog is looking absolutely gorgeous!
