No no no! lol
My problem here are little birds called Pygmy Nuthatches drilling holes in the siding and nesting in the insulation. If the local bats ever find those holes things would go from irritating to disaster.
Then there are the Flickers (close relatives of woodpeckers) who can drill a tennis ball sized hole in no time at all. But they make a lot of noise so I catch them in the act usually and they’re easy to scare away. The nuthatches are more persistent.
Nope, this house isn’t Noah’s Ark.2!
People inside, animals outside ... we can stare at each other through the windows. ;-)
:D
I feel your pain.
I live in a 300 year old log house so the concept of “keeping animals out” is but a fantasy I sometimes pointlessly entertain.
:)
Today, it’s chilly so I thought I’d open the window instead of using the AC.
Haven’t done so for several weeks and when I went to open it, lo and behold, there’s a sophisticated bird nest against the outer sill...and two Wrens busily laying plans of some nefarious sort.
So, the window’s staying shut until they’re done.
The upside is that they apparently cannot see me looking at them, even though I’m mere inches away, so I get to watch the whole family thing happening.
There’s a network cam right beside them so I could also rotate it and watch them on my PC.
