IIRC, the kitchen shears were able to cut the metal CC I had. But yeah, regular scissors wouldn't.

I did, something happened to them a couple years ago, I can't find them. I should give up on them showing up and just get a new pair.
I'll try the kitchen shears first though. Or the fire pit if that doesn't work and I don't go crazy and spend a few bucks on a new pair of snips..

Stellar's not Blue Jay IMO. Figure on a month or two. Critters living in or on the house is where I draw the line. Knock it down now to give them a chance to relo and put a rubber snake where the nest was.
A few people feel the rain. Most people just get wet.

Nah - just leave it and use the area per usual. We've never had jays nest like that, but every year we get robins or sparrows that build on a light right next to the house like that.
We all manage to co-exist with very little drama until the chick's fledge.

If Jay's are like the robins who nest by our back door, they'll come back every spring to nest in the same spot. Post a TR.

Steller's Jays in the PNW are particularly noisy birds. Going anywhere near that nest is going to elicit lots of squawking and maybe even a little swooping. That said, I'd be inclined to leave it at this point.
If you feed Hummingbirds, you might want to stop until the Jays are gone.

If you can put a little webcam above it it could be cool for the kids to see. We used to use binoculars to see the robin fledglings under the corner of the roof.

I am inclined to roll with it but now realizing I have tree removal scheduled next week to deal with 2 enormous firs - maybe 20’ from this nest. 2 days of pro saw work then I’ll probably be dicking around myself for days after breaking down and giving wood away. WWMD?

Leave it. If they decide to bolt, no worries... they're jays after all.

I could fire up the chainsaw in the yard right now, and the Jays would be back for dinner.
edit: are there eggs yet?
2nd edit: yeah, the webcam would be cool

We have to be very careful in the spring about leaving our garage door open too much during the day. The little birds like to nest in the rafters if you give them half a chance.

Anyone build anything out of locust tree wood?
I have some saplings to clear out and was befuddled by the thorns so I started reading for bright ideas. Had no idea it was desirable wood.

It splits like crazy, it's decent for kindling. But sometimes the grain is twisted and you can't split that no matter what. It's very hard, so it's good for things like flooring but it's hard to work. Also good for fence posts, it doesn't rot, although it sometimes comes back to life and a post will try to turn back into a tree.

Ours didn't die, but it was nip and tuck for 3 months, lots of anxiety tears. Going up there and every week seeing another horse corpse covered with a tarp. Grisly. They'd load up the bodies biweekly.
Plus having that incident and exposure follow after leaving that barn.Merde De Glace On the Freak When Ski
