I'll bet you thought everybody was going to love on you and tell you how in tune you are with nature, and congratulate you for being so green.

Probably wrens. They will build a nest anywhere. This advice may be too late, but just remove the nest in tact and set it nearby in the rafter's somewhere nearby. They parents will find it.


Here's a shot I took yesterday of a Peregrine Falcon chick practicing it's take-off skills on a high rise balcony in Chicago.
